I am just curious if any other short women followed the nutrition guide for P90X. I only have maybe 5 pounds to lose and so don't know if I still need to have my calories set for weight loss or if I should go to maintenance or what. Lol
I would like to hear what others have done.

I would really like an idea of how many calories other women are eating when doing P90X. Even if you aren't short. Thanks!0

I am 5'4" and I have allotted myself 1800 cal (per p90x nutritional plan) but I NEVER even come close to eating that many calories. I eat on average about 1400-1500, but I usually am just stuck watching my carbs and fat percentages. I will note that I am healthy-ish, but I am more about portion control of the foods I like.0

I just am thinking that 1800 calories for someone my size is too much. But not really sure. Right now I have changed my settings to start the day with 1300 calories so that by the time I work out and eat those calories I am between 1600 and 1700 for the day. Just not sure if I should up it to start with the 1400 or not. I don't want to gain weight! lol0
