A 1,200-calorie diet is a way of eating that limits the number of daily calories that you consume to 1,200. This diet is considered a low calorie diet because it provides significantly fewer calories than most average adults need to maintain their weight. Many healthcare providers, including doctors and dietitians, prescribe low calorie diets as a go-to strategy for weight loss. A common recommendation to spark weight loss is to decrease calorie intake by 500-750 calories per day. This usually translates to a low calorie diet of 1,200-1,500 calories per day for adult women and 1,500-1,800 calories per day for adult men. Note that 1,200 calories is at the low end of the recommended low calorie diet ranges for women.Every dinner contains no more than 400 calories per serving.
