[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I’ll go. I’m a snacker and need to eat often or I get hangry. Here’s a sample day ~ 1400 calories. Breakfast: 2 eggs and whole wheat toast with a bit of olive oil 1/4 cup of blackberries Coffee with oat milk, sugar, and 2 TBS marine collagen powder Snack: 1/2 apple and 1 TBS aLmond butter Green tea with honey Lunch: Big salad with romaine, arugula, cherry tomatoes, sunflower seeds, 1/2 can tuna fish, fingerling potatoes, Brussels sprouts, and apple cider vinagrette with mustard Snack: 3/4 cup cashew yogurt with 1/2 cup strawberries 1 teaspoon psyllium husk powder Dinner: Baked salmon with a drizzle olive oil, lemon and paprika Fingerling potatoes roasted in olive oil Sautéed kale with lemon Snack: 1/4 cup strawberries and 1 small square of dark chocolate Plus I drink an 8-12 ounce glass of water with every meal and snack. [/quote] It is helpful to see this. Most of these foods are not what I'd prefer to eat personally, and yet I also follow a 1200 calories per day very lean and healthy diet. I think it's going to be very individual and really it should be, if it is going to work for you / me / anyone else. [/quote] I would be so hungry on 1200. I work out, IF, and probably hit closer to 1500 for weight loss. [/quote] You say that but have you tried it? I am not hungry at all, in fact the rest of the family who eat considerably more than I do seem hungrier. [/quote] I have and yes I was def hungry. I lift weights and do other workouts on my days off (I am a hospital nurse so I am on my feet on days I work). I eat less on days I am at work but I could not sustain weight lifting on 1200/cal per day.[/quote] That makes sense. [/quote]
