Girls, how many calories are you eating?

I'm 5ft & 79kg - looking to lose another 15-20kg. I eat 1200 a day, sometimes less (occasionally way more if I have a binge!!!). I go for a walk/jog wearing 1kg wrist-weights for about half an hour, 4 or 5 times a week & occasionally do some handweights -but that's about the extent of my exercise. My weight-loss so far has been mainly from limited calories & good food choices (ie - the weeks that I've done more exercise than usual I haven't lost any extra weight)0

I net about 1300/1400 a day and am not losing any weight! I want to lose it slowly but it's been a month and I haven't lost any. Suggestions? Am I not eating enough?0 -
I'm 5'1, 167 lbs and was eating 1200 per day but plateaued and just upped my calories to 1400.. I'm so freaked out I'm going to end up gaining weight. How many calories are you guys eating and what are your stats?
5'1" working out 3x a week can easily eat 1600-1800 and still lose fat.
Lift weights and youll be amazed!
Give fat a reason not to exist!
Eat right and move right!
I'm 5'1" 140 lbs & workout 3-4/week. I was eating 1200 until last week when I read ^^^this guy's posts! I recently upped it to 1600.
I like this response above. Don't freak out. Slow and steady! I really think 1600 calories spread out throughout the day will work. I try to do a 100 calorie something every hour or two.0 -

I'm 5'7, started at 218 (recorded weight, but it was higher than that) and ate between 1200-1350 calories a day + doing Insanity.
Lost 21 pounds by January 3rd and stayed there until ~2 weeks ago when I upped my calories to 1900 and lost 2 pounds right after doing that. Trust me, I was scared to get on the scale and see a weight gain, but I lost weight instead.
ETA current stats:
5'7"
195 lbs
1900 calories
Workout 6x a week (cardio & lifting)0 -
1000 calories. (im 5,3 and about 123lbs)0

5'9 - 163. I recently switched from 1546 (my BMR) to eating a 20% deficit of my TDEE, which is 2,105. I'm a distance runner, competitive triathlete and ballet instructor so I'm active for at least an hour 5-6 days a week between training and teaching. I was getting absolutely nowhere the first few months (gaining and losing the same five pounds) but I've already dropped weight since switching and feel a lot less lethargic because I'm eating more.0

Well, I am only eating about 900. It is a military style diet. It is very difficult and dangerous. I suggest at least 1200.0
