I'm 5'1 with about 40lbs to lose1

A perk to being short, it takes less of a loss for it to be noticeable on us. 10lbs on someone 5'7 might not make much of a difference but it does on us!2

5'2"--Started my fitness journey at 230 before joining My Fitness Pal. I'm down to 196.8 but still would like to lose about 70 more lbs. Right now I'm really looking forward to getting to around 170 so that I can jump on my kids trampoline in the back yard. Goals are awesome!! I kind of let myself go for a while having 3 kids and now I'm ready to get back into the shape I was in before kids. I want to be able to run long distances again and play ultimate Frisbee again!!2

Hey, I'm 5'1 and weigh 165 pounds, looking to lose 30lbs. MFP is saying my daily calorie allowance is 1200 but is that not a bit low? Anyone else starting out on 1200 calories? Or have had success with it?0

1200 calories a day is not enough, especially if you're active. What I do is set my activity level to sedentary on MFP...then I eat about half of my exercise calories. I walk 12-15k steps a day, do high intensity cardio 3 times a week and strength training twice a week (i probably should increase this to 3x a week but find it hard to find the motivation on the weekend to get moving) I eat about 1500-1700 calories a day and am losing about .5-1lb a week.
