Hey guys so I’m just starting my journey as of one week ago. I’m F26 starting at 238lbs at 5’5 and I’ve lost 3.3lbs this week eating at 1200 calories.
I posted over in 1200isplenty and got some feedback that 1200 is probably too low for me given my weight and that I might be better off bumping my intake up.
I’m just looking for other opinions and experiences eating 1200 and if it truly is too low for someone like me. I also have a chronic illness which means I am fairly inactive. I do 30 minute daily walks with my dog and that’s about it. I plan to try and start some exercise when I’ve got a bit of the weight off, particularly strength training.
Would around 1500 be a better goal for me? I’m feeling ok and super motivated and satisfied with my meals at this point but I know this isn’t a sustainable deficit and I don’t plan on it being long term, maybe a few months to get rid of a good bit of excess weight.
Any experiences and thoughts on a good deficit for me would be great 😊
