Welcome! o/
I made /r/1200isplentyketo because I'm female, short and on keto and thus aiming for a low daily calorie count.
Though there are many keto subs I was surprised to find there was no sub that really catered to these needs - and as keto is easily very high calorie (what with all that cheese and bacon) it is very helpful to collate all the low calories versions in one place.
Whether your stats mean you need to eat 1200 calories to lose weight, or you can eat a bit more but still want some low calorie alternatives - this sub is for anybody looking for low calorie keto meal ideas :)
Anybody is welcome to contribute - even if you're not going as low as 1200 calories a day. Low calorie daily meals are essential for all of us - so everything is appreciated!
As well as being a place to find and share low calorie keto meals, we also hope to provide general support to those following keto and losing weight - and are open to questions and discussion about these topics too :D
All welcome!

Having such a hard time feeling full!!!
My breakfast was a 2 egg omelette with sharp cheddar cheese, some onions and peppers cooked that in a tsp of butter and had a matcha latte with 1 cup of unsweetened almond milk and tsp of Mct oil. Hitting my macros but I’m so hungry! Is this just because my body is used to eating more and will my body eventually get used to less? Total for this breakfast is 387 cals. 1200 is so low but I haven’t lost anything but 5lbs in 2 weeks and last time I did keto I didn’t lose weight AT ALL. I would like to eat 2 meals a day and 1 snack at least. But it feels like these calories only leave room for two small meals.
