HOWEVER, the link for the 7 Day Sample Menus is not as easily found. My apologies. You can access the sample menus by going to <a href="http://www.womenandweight.com/1200-calorie-diet/" rel="nofollow">1200 Calorie Diet</a> and then scroll down to the bottom of the page. Do modify the sample diets to fit your preferences. What I have provided are samples only. Your BMR (Basal metabolic rate) does seem to be 1485, which suggests you would be best off with the 1500 calorie diet plan. You can adjust/modify any of the sample menus to fit a 1500 calorie plan. If you'd like to calculate your "weight loss range" you might want to read <a href="http://www.womenandweight.com/weight-management/weight-loss/how-many-calories-per-day/" rel="nofollow">How Many Calories a Day do I Need?</a> This article is part of a 3 part series that discusses metabolism and caloric needs. Hope this helps. Don't hesitate to ask if you have more questions. Lori Hi Christina,

I gather from what you are telling me you are already aware that the basic plan for following a 1200 or 1500 calorie diet can be accessed from the menu bar at the top of every page. HOWEVER, the link for the 7 Day Sample Menus is not as easily found. My apologies. You can access the sample menus by going to 1200 Calorie Diet and then scroll down to the bottom of the page.

Your BMR (Basal metabolic rate) does seem to be 1485, which suggests you would be best off with the 1500 calorie diet plan. You can adjust/modify any of the sample menus to fit a 1500 calorie plan. If you’d like to calculate your “weight loss range” you might want to read How Many Calories a Day do I Need? This article is part of a 3 part series that discusses metabolism and caloric needs.

Hope this helps. Don’t hesitate to ask if you have more questions.

What kind of struggles/frustrations do you face with weight loss? How much would you like to lose? Have you determined what a healthy realistic weight might be for someone of your age and height? I have a LOT of tips and advice that might help you. And if not, maybe I could steer you to another website that might be more appropriate for your needs. I wish you the best, Lori Doris, Let me know more about your situation. What kind of struggles/frustrations do you face with weight loss? How much would you like to lose?

I am not an advocate of very low calorie diets (less than 1200 calories) because it is very difficult to achieve nutritional balance or meet basic physiological energy needs with less than 1200 calories. In fact, most people need more than 1200 calories to stay healthy when dieting. (See <a href="http://www.womenandweight.com/weight-management/1200-calorie-diet-getting-started/" rel="nofollow">1200 Calorie Diet: Getting Started</a> or <a href="http://www.womenandweight.com/weight-management/weight-loss/how-many-calories-per-day/" rel="nofollow">How Many Calories a Day Do I Need?</a> for more information.)
