in Introduce Yourself
Hellooo! I'm looking to make friends with fellow shorties that probably share around the same calorie goal as me! I'm 5'2" and have a goal of about 1200 calories a day. Or... it would be great if I could meet some people who are vegetarian as well. We could share food ideas... I relatively new to the cooking world and recently discovered the amazing 40 cal shirataki noodles. Add me pleease :)

    Hi, I am vegetarian 95% of the time but I do occassionally eat seafood once or twice a month. I am also on a 1200 calorie diet. A little taller though :-) I don't know how to add people but my name is jacquisaxby1 if that helps!

    I'm Veg as well.

    Those noodles are the bomb aren't they. I love them for spaghetti and stir fry's.

    I'm short: 5'1" and looking to lose about fifteen-twenty pounds. zomg it is SOOO hard. I eat mostly vegan/vegetarian as well (for example if there is a soup at a restaurant made with chicken broth but is otherwise free of animal products I might order that simply because it's easier than getting all worked up over the lack of options, etc.)

    I'm a vegetarian, but I lift so my calorie goals are between 1600-1900. Feel free to look at my diary and recipes.

    Shortie here! 5'2. currently about 150. Wanna get down to 130. Not vegetarian, though... I actually LOVE my meat :) We did give up everything but fish for Lent though. Just bumped up to 1350 calories, but not sure if i'm gonna stick with it... this is my first week with the higher calories and not sure if I'll commit...

    Mostly vegetarian here, too (with the odd seafood meal, because i don't want to take a fish oil supplement). Never tried the noodles, but I like tofu any other kind of way, so I might have to put that on my grocery list!

    I'm a big foodie, so I'm always up for swapping recipes!

    I'm a 5'3" vegetarian on a 1200 calorie diet. Tried going dairy free once and I just couldn't stay away from cheese. That in particular makes it hard for me to lose weight! I'm looking to lose about 15 pounds total and keep it off, this time for good. Anyone add me if you want!

    You know you can get the same benefits of omegas without eating fish? Or is that your preference? There's flax oil supplements but I prefer avocados :)

    Hi! I have similar calorie goals and I'm a vegetarian as well. I don't eat much dairy, maybe 1 or 2 times a week I'll have something at a restaurant that likely has cheese or other dairy, but I try to be vegan when eating at home. Anyone can feel free to add me as a friend!

    HI I'm in the REALLY short camp and after a crappy year of being bullied in the teaching profession am now changing things and trying to get back the motivation to lift weights again and go swimming and do everything I was doing. I'm only 4'11" and am at 136 which feels awful and I can't fit into things... so depressing.
    I guess knowing i've done it once makes it seem even more difficult - so easy to put on but so hard to take off!
    Still I love cooking and would love to swop recipes. I don't know the noodles everyone was talking about but they sound fun.

    It just makes me smile to think of our world full of shorties!:laugh:
