I'm 4'10 and weight has always been a struggle because any gain or loss shows so much.

I've just re-started my journey. Im 154, wanting to be 134 by September and eventually 115 or less. I've never been smaller than 115, but it'd be amazing to see how far i can push myself!

Being so small means that the 1200 minimum isn't too much of a deficit, so it takes us much longer to lose.

It'd be nice to add people with similar weight to lose (about 40lbs) :)

    I can relate to the 1200 minimum meaning it takes us longer to lose weight. I share your end goal but am at a different starting point.

    5 2' . Eating 1200 kcal is so hard and losing the weight is so slow. A lot of my taller friends tell me I dont eat enough :(:D

    I'm a shorty and on 1200/day as well. I think what irritates me most is if I eat under 1000 just because I wasn't hungry, MFP goes all red on me and says I'm not eating enough so I'm penalised. Come on! Anyone else that has a deficit of 200 on a day wouldn't get a nasty gram like that. I tend to have days where I don't eat much and days I eat a lot, I just try to stick to weekly goal. I'm not trying to lose weight, mostly maintain as I am on weight gaining medication so I know my BMR will be affected and I'll have to eat less.

    5'1, looking to shed 70 pounds. Love how noticeable it is when I lose 6 pounds, don't love the razor-thin deficits at lower weights, ha.

    5'1" as well...Looking to lose about 50lbs to get back down to a normal weight for my tiny frame. It's a slow process but I didn't gain the weight in a few months, I won't lose it for in a few months. Keep your head up, we're in it together.
