Thread: How long to stay at 1200 cals?

I have been following the Amazing Inch Loss Plan for 2 weeks so have been on 1200cals per day.

The first week i lost 6lbs (yey!!) but this week i have stayed the same. I admit i have been fitting in excercise wherever i can, but not always every day as i work and have a family.

Do i now have to step up to 1400 cals per day or has anybody tried 1200 cals per day for a bit longer?

Thanks.

Ello.

Yes 1400 for 2 weeks. Best not be tempted to do another week on 1200 as body goes into starvation mode and retains the weight. 1200 is to give the body a good old shake up from what you have been eating.

Good luck and keep us posted. Congrats on the 6 pounds - u must feel great!
