if you weren't exercising so much i'd tell you to go with no less than 1200 a day. however because you're SO active you need more than that to make sure that you don't get nutrient deficiant which would destroy your metabolism and make it so you didn't have much energy to do anything else but sleep all the time. with you i'm going to say 1400-1500 cal a day minimum! but every one's body is different so try this amount for 4 or 5 months and if you still aren't getting the results you want lower it by 50 or 100 then wait a few months and see what effects that has. don't ever go below 1200 though!

sure you will drop some weight yet you are able to no longer shop that weight loss application up, it quite is no longer sturdy for you. The undesirable factor is, as quickly as you lose the burden you such as you will go decrease back to ingesting better than 3 hundred cal then you certainly will benefit all of it decrease back and doubtless extra. i might go the wholesome way. gazing your calorie intake someplace around 1200 cal and ingesting a minimal of 8 glasses of water an afternoon. Burn off better than you eat. you particularly need nutrients to supply you power to workout. sturdy success!

to be honest the best way is not to go on a diet as ive tried them all and diet pills and they dont work lol but just change your diet and go swimming 4-5 times a week for about an hour each time it tones your tummy and all your body up wonderful too ! i lost just over 2 1/2 stone since may its great and i eat loads too im just eating the right foods but instead of swimming try aqua arobics its great and really fun ! great question goodluck !
with lots of fruit and veg and try experimentimg with all the low fat foods you will be amazed how tasty some of them are goodluck :0)

1200 at the absolute minimum, and make those healthy, nutritious calories.
