So I'm a 5'0 female, who started at 113 pounds. I'm hoping to get to 100, but as other petite people know, EVERY CALORIE ADDS. It's so hard, because being small means all our food shows! We can't gain a pound without it showing, but it's soooo hard to loose without going below 1,200 calories! Looking for others starting/still on/ who have finished, and advice and encouragement!

    Hi :) i know exactly what you mean ... im only 4' 8" (!) and i also started at around 114 pounds... im trying to get to about 90 or 95... It seems so unfair that i have to eat so much less than most people in order to lose weight! i try to stick to 1200 including excercise, so when it tells me ive gained some calories due to excercise i usually ignore it (i dont go below 1000) and it seems to be working... because when i just stick to the calories it tells me, i just maintain ... i hope what im doing is alright because i cant find anyone as small as i am, most calorie calculators etc start at 5 feet ...
