I know that body frame and height makes everyones intake very different but I still like seeing success with other petite ladies . I only weigh once a week and I was 131 at my last weigh in. I eat between 1600-1650 calories everyday, which is my TDEE -20%. These last 10 pounds are very stubborn!

I'm 5"2 and try to stay between 1200 and 1600 calories. The last 10 pounds definitely are exceptionally stubborn! I would like to lose another 5-10 lbs, but it's just not coming off... yet. Granted, those two doughnuts I just ate aren't going to help.0 -
Without exercise I try to stay around 1490. But am usually over. Usually end up around 1600-1800 cals.0

5'2" and eating between 1680 - 2080 (Anything below my TDEE really haha.0

i'm 5'3" and MFP calculated my calorie goal at 1,460 to lose .5 lb per week. however, i used the calculator at scoobysworkshop.com and they say that my TDEE minus 20% would be 1,793 calories per day. i am nervous about increasing my calorie intake so drastically, but i've been stuck for weeks and got nothing left to lose...except for these last few pounds!0

5'4 and i eat 1449 cals a day!0

totally depends on the amount of exercise I get that day. It can be anywhere from 1200 -1600. I don't eat all my exercise calories back though. I don't trust the MFP calculations0

miadhail are you losing?
I have bumped up to 1600 net but find its hard to get there...haven't lost anything in 4 months and am trying to lose 5-10 lbs...
Help0 -
My goal is 1725 but my monthly average is 1617. Once i get better at eating more I may increase again.0

I'm 5'3 and I eat 1500 a day. Also I don't eat back any exercise calories. Doing TDEE minus 80% as well with only 6 lbs more to lose. Very happy about that! But at the same time extremely nervous to increase calories once I'm there..0

I am 5'2" and 131lbs. I recently switched from -20% to TDEE-15% as an average over the course of a week. Each day is set at 1700 but can be up and down depending on my exercise. I try not to let my NET drop below 1200, so if my exercise calories are higher than normal, I will eat extra. Like today was my long run and I will probably eat around 2500 so that my net doesn't drop below 1200. I use the fitbit on my runs and unlike MFP, it estimates my calorie burn pretty low, so I really try not to have too large of a deficit.0

5'1" and cant even hit 1200 without feeling over full - my issue sugar - the food I eat has a lot of grams of sugar, I am struggling to find calories that dont contain sugar that is my fat factor.0

Here I've got it at 1350, I'm 5'3" 38yo 60kg (130lb) but I actually eat about 2500 due to how much I work out. I've not gained, not lost weight but toned up more & lost more fat.0
-
I'm 26 and 5'0" here, also trying to get off about 10 stubborn pounds. I'm currently at 127lb trying to get to somewhere around 117lbs. I eat anywhere from 1300 (rare, sitting on my butt, no exercise at Mom's house) to 1900 (heavy lifting, plus crazy day at work). Basically I shoot for TDEE -15%.0
-
I'm 5'2" and 123 pounds. I eat 2000 per day every day to lose those last 8 pounds. I burn about 1800 calories per week in dedicated exercise.0
-
5'4" and 210. Depending on the day I eat anywhere from 1500-2,2000
-
5'4" (and a half) weigh 80 kgs (176 pds) and I eat 1663 a day0
-
