    The lowest height on the healthy weight charts I could find is 4'10", and the low end of the healthy weight range for that height is 91 lbs. I then used a BMR calculator for an 80 year old female 4'10" and 91 lbs and got a BMR of 775. BMR is bare minimum alive but doesn't move. So unless someone is an elderly woman under 5", already a low weight and who never gets out of bed, less than 1000 calories is not appropriate.

    That actually puts a lot of other posts regarding calories into perspective
