It's nice to see so many people in the 1200 range. My friends and family were telling me that it was just impossibly low, but insofar (only about a week, granted) I've been feeling fine and my clothes are fitting a little better already.

So, ah, yeah. 320lbs, 1200 daily, p. much no out of the way exercise. The thing that worries me is when I have to drive across the country to move to Virginia. Hotel stays and fast food places, eek!

I'm 5'5, currently 170.6lbs, 30 years old and work out 4-5 times a week (running, HIIT cardio, strength training). In the past I was eating 1100-1200 calories a day and was STARVING and would binge and never lose any weight. Then I joined Weight Watchers online and have lost almost 10 pounds in the last two months. As i'm still on WW, I have decided to up my caloric intake to 1500 calories for work out days and 1300 for non workout days. I'm gonna see where this gets me.

I really like www.acaloriecalculator.com because it gives your BMI, BMR and several calorie allotments all in one place.

I'm 28, 4'9" and 142lbs. Staying between 1200-1500 seems to work pretty well for me. If I do much weight lifting I can take it up a bit but I just don't have the energy for it right now. I'm trying but it's not at all intense.

Oh I am bad! I'm sitting outside right now and it's fairly hard to read the screen. I read this thread title as "How many calories do you want to eat?" and thought...ALL OF THEM!

I guess if I'm only thinking it and not doing it I'm okay!
