I love to give advice, but you might be a 70 pound anorexic, and I might say
the wrong thing.

Have you read Atkins' book?

If you are just worrying about calories, you can eat tomatoes, green
beans, kraut, mushrooms, asparagus, broccoli, cauliflower, celery,
lettuce, chicken noodle soup, chicken rice soup etc..

You want to be on a diet, and be satisfied? Good one!

And I want a magic wallet from which I can keep taking money without
ever putting any in.

What you can eat to achieve those calories depends on how many carbs
you allow yourself each day. What is your carb goal?

Calories are irrelevant, so I'll just advise you to use capitalization,
apostrophes, and correct spacing. Your writing will be easier to read
and look less like trolling or spam, so you'll be more likely to get
serious answers.

It's not the calories. It's what's in em.
1200 calories = 300 g of carbs (bad idea), 300 g of protein
(probably over doing it), and 133g of fat (probably not
the best solution, either).

The trick is to find the point at which, along the continuum of
0 to 300g of carbs, will produce satisfaction. It's probably
going to be 60. @60g of carbs, that's 240 calories, leaving
you abundant options for your fats and proteins.

But, deep down, we know that limiting calories to 1200 is a self
defeating game. You'll get some progress, then will have to
reduce to 1100 to get more progress. And you will never be able
to maintain and eat normally again.

Find a better approach. I'm going to recommend the
Protein Power Life Plan by Mike and Mary Dan Eades.

Most low carb methods don't limit calories until near the end
of the loss phase. Yet this is your first post on the topic.
That's a red flag that suggest you haven't read any of the
books on the topic.

and im not getting satisfied with what im eating.


Another violation of low carb principles. You are supposed to
eat until satisfied. If you continue to be unsatisfied after a
meal even at the end of the loss phases then you're not on
an established plan.

anyone got any tips or advice on what i
can eat while staying at the 1200 calories a day?


That few calories per day suggests your target weight is 120
pounds. Without any mention at all of your height and current
weight that sounds too much like a wild overreaction.

There's far too high a chance you have an eating disorder and
any advice given here would be taken wrong.
