1200 is the lowest you should go in order to remain healthy. You would be better off aiming for a range of 1200-1500 calories. Even better would be to go for 1500-1700 calories & increase your activity level also. Good luck!

Hi. I am pretty sure 1200 is the lowest it will go as SP believes that going below that isn't very healthy and can in fact trigger your body to go into starvation mode which in turns causes your body to store fat and weight gain.

Best wishes to you!

Is 1200 calories the lowest the tracker will go? I don't like being under but it seems that's when I actually lose weight.

Soft-Serve Banana "Ice Cream"
Submitted By: SP_STEPF

Frozen bananas rival soft serve when given a whirl in the food processor. Trust me, it's AMAZING: no fat, no cholesterol, no added sugar, just creamy and sweet bananas!
My brother and boyfriend loved this treat! I found this recipe on a raw foods website and modified it slightly. I topped mine with a tablespoon of pure maple syrup mixed with 2 t dark cocoa powder. Full Recipe
