[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I think this advice is ridiculous. If you want to “quickly” lose weight and then gain it right back, sure eat your 1200-1300 calories a day.

But if you want real, sustainer lifestyle changes, you are going to have to eat a lot more than that - the right things - and train a lot more to get your muscle up. [/quote]

For petite ppl, ignore the above, as I mentioned, at 5 feet tall and 115, I’m at 1200 a day IF I don’t work out. I am also very fit as a runner and am toned and have well developed muscles as someone who regularly lifts weight. Again, since I do workout almost every day, I’m eating more than 1200 a day.

But the point is, if you want to eat more than ur base calorie needs, you have to workout. Otherwise, you’re going to have to eat within ur base calorie needs to lose or maintain weight.

Otherwise, if you’re not petite, 1200-1300 is likely not very much. [/quote]

OP should absolutely not go down to 1220 calories a day to lose weight. No one wants to live like that. She will lose it quickly and then make maintenance impossible. Stick with 1600, move as much as you can, and give it time. Two weeks really isn't enough.
