Short girls and calories

Hey short girls,

What are your weight loss goals and what are your daily calorie goals? Do you exercise? About how much weight are you losing per week?

I'm trying to recalibrate a bit so that I can speed up my weight loss a bit -- I've been losing about 2-3 pounds per month for the last year or so, and I upped my exercise from 4 days a week to 7 or 8 times a week over the course of six days, with a full rest day and one active rest day. My calorie limit had been 1500, and I usually didn't eat all of my calories back from exercise.

I'm 19 pounds to my goal and about 8 months from my wedding, so I'd love to get to my goal before then. I'm down more than 25 lb from last year. What does your progress look like?

Your rate of loss sounds perfect for the amount you have to lose actually.

I'm 5'2 and lost about 35 lbs eating between 1600-1900 cals. I lost about 1 lb/week for the first 15 and then 0.5 lb/week after that.

I'm currently maintaining around 120 with a TDEE of 2200.
