    I'll be your buddy.
    4'11...currently my goal is to lose about 4 pounds ( I would tell you all my weight but it is low and it makes me sound much smaller than I look....I know that this last 4 lbs, what I was last year, makes a big difference!)

    I could use the support. It is hard when you are short as 1 or 2 lbs can look like two to three times as much. I eat 1200 calories, but wonder if that is too much? I also don't fully understand if I am supposed to eat back the calories or be in a deficit each day? Lastly, starting back on weights...the only thing that really helps me get it off...so I could use some support there.
