Hello everybody, I have a question. my current weight is 147lbs ive lost  6lbs so far. My check in date was today and iam suppost to be eating 1200 calories but today when i checked in it said my calorie intake is 1800 and 19grms of fat is that right?

That sounds a little unusual -- unless you have dramatically increased your activity output.  Did you get the 1,200 calories from registration with the myalliplan; or did you calculate that yourself?  In any event, I think you should post this on the Technical assistance message board; OR call the TA number listed on the homepage of the message boards.

Yes, the calorie levels are sometimes increased if someone is losing weight too fast, and/or their activity level is very intense.

I hope this helps.

I got the calories from the registration with myalli plan, and iam not losing weight too fast, but my activity level has gone up a little to 45min wlking/jogging at 3/4.3mph 3 days a week.

thank you for responding my question, I will contact technical assistance as you suggest. But i will still keep doing 1200 calorie intake

thanks for your help.

Let me mention a few other things that might help.  I don't know your height so I'm not sure how much weight you have to lose.  What I can say is that people who have the most weight to lose, lose the fastest -- at least in the beginning and then it tapers off to a slower rate. 

Also alli is not meant to be a quick weight loss program.  It's to help people lose 50% more weight than just diet alone, and learn healthier lifestyle patterns so when goal weight is reached there's a greater chance it will be maintained.  Rapid weight loss is often followed by weight gain, and frequently with a few extra pounds on top.

Keep me posted after you connect with Technical Assistance and let me know if you need anything else.
