If u were to stick to 1200 cals a day then u wouldn't gain any weight from that. U might the first day or two but I bet that u will start losing after/staying the same. I have been sticking to btwn 1200 and 1500 cals a day and I have been staying about the same. It just takes a few days for ur body to realize all the food. I was told however that it takes ur body a really long time to get used to having a normal amount of food again. So if u ate say like 2000 cals a day when ur body is used to way less ur body is going to store more of that food as fat in case if the starvation happens again it will be more prepared. But after it learns that u will not be doing that again u will lose those extra pounds and ur body will return to its natural set point. Then u won't have the huge flucuations all the time and ur metabolism will go back up and u will be able to eat more without having to worry or count everything. I don't know if this helped out at all, but I guess this was one thing that I did get from the dietician.

Also u could be gaining because of the amount of water u drank or salt u ate. Also if u drink diet pop that causes u to retain ur fluids, which would cause u to gain. I really wouldn't worry about it to much. Unless u can actually see a difference, and I mean honestly see a difference, it is prolly just some water weight that will be lost througout the day. Try sticking to 1200 cals a day, for even a week or two and u will see that u won't gain on it, if u do the first few days don't panic, stick with it and then u will hopefully see. Good luck to ya :o)

Take care
Becky
