Did anyone else look at those numbers, think they looked weird and proceeded to do the math? I'm just wondering exactly how particular I am.. Anywho, that comes in at just under 1100 calories, you can have some more chocolate! \o/
Breakfast: Cheerios w/ 1% milk
Snack: Apple

For my other snack - maybe string cheese, or if I am really hungry I will have an entire package (2 cups) Green Giant "Immunity Blend" veggies - 70 to 100 cals

In your posts, you are at or under 1000. No adult female should eat under 1200 for any reason (and almost no actual woman is small and inactive enough to need only 1200, even when she's losing weight), and teens need at least 1500. Have you read a lot on this site about healthy weight loss? Severely restricting leads to lots of unpleasant things, including gaining back the weight when you try to resume normal, healthy eating habits. It's unavoidable; your body makes changes to survive on reduced calories and doesn't change back until it has stored enough fat for the next "famine."

Actually, yours is the only menu in this thread that makes any sense. It's nutritionally balanced and very healthy, is filling and satisfying, and is devoid of junky, processed foods. Congratulations on getting it right!
It's early, so just coffee.
Yesterday, I had fast food for dinner, and I woke up late anyway, so that was my only meal.
It came out to about 800 calories.
I was 'allowed' to eat more of course, but I really wasn't hungry after that.
Fatty fast food tends to fill me up for a long time.
I could probably lose the most weight by eating 1 of those a day, but..that wouldn't be healthy or anything, so I don't.
Tempting sometimes when I get sick of oatmeal and chicken breast, but..nah. That'd be bad.
Right? Yeah, bad.
I won't do it, I swear.
Hi mkculs!
This is actually my second time using CC and I lost 26 pounds the first time. (Gained ten pounds after the wedding!) I just started on monday and usually the first week I try to eat really light food. No meat, no bread, no pasta. But then after that I eat normal which is about 1300 calories. But thanks for your concern!

Funny..CC is the one who put me at 1200 for weight loss *and* maintenance.
Just for fun, I put my goal weight as my current, and my goal to see what it would tell me, and it said 1200.
When I put my real current and goal, it said 1200.
Either way, looks like 1200 is the verdict from CC.
I eat about 1700 calories a day.
Yesterday
Breakfast: 2 multigrain toast, half a tomato, half an avacado, 2 oz liverwurst 2 tbs mayo. 471 calories
Lunch: I was lazy same as breakfast. 471 calories.
Snack: 4 cups of air popped corn with butter, no salt. Glass of ice tea. 453 calories.
Dinner: macaroni tuna salad. 465 calories.
Total 1950 calories.
