    Final thought, what is your blood type? A lot of people do not buy into it, but my own physician actually does. If you are type O, then you should eat one large meal per day avoiding only breads and if you are type A or AB, you should eat five small meals a day. One big meal a day means you come from an ancestry of hunters and five small meals are from gatherers.

    Well, depending on how tall you are, at 111 pounds you may well be in the 1300-1400 calorie maintenance range. I'm 5'1" and at 99 pounds MFP tells me that my maintenance is at 1320 for sedentary. The curse of being short and light is that unless you're also moving a lot you just don't get to eat much. Yep, it sucks.

    This is pretty much my story, too, sad as it is. Especially given our propensity (all of us) to underestimating our caloric intake and overestimating our exercise, plus the difference between maintaining and gaining is only about 200cal/day anyway.
