I'm 5'2 1/2 and still losing at 1600 cal per day. It seems more is better with activity!0

I'm between 5'2 and 5'3, one of those. I weigh 176 now, started just around 199lbs on Feb 5th. Only started counting calories just over a week ago, which helped me through my period weight gain & loss, and I'm now down a few more!
I do 1200, though I noticed MFP is taking away a few calories here and there now.0 -
I'm 5'2", 48 years old, 107 pounds, 1 hour cardio/day x 5 days a week, on maintenance @ roughly 1,500 calories a day.0

I am 5'3 and weigh 161lb, my base calorie intake is 1330 and I usually burn 300-400 cals per day doing a mixture of cardio and weights. I have lost the best part of 60lbs but am feeling a little frustrated because I've been on a plateau for ages yet still would like to lose another 20lb. Recently I've tried eating back some of my exercise calories, but still no movement on the scales. I guess my logging isn't accurate enough!0

I am 5' 2''. I am hovering between 1200-1400 calories per day. I workout 5 days a week and this week I didn't eat back my calories and BOOM the scale went down.0

I am recovering from going to low and forcing my body into a brief starvation mode. I was at 1600 cals and lost 12 lbs in Jan then stopped losing, so I went down to 1200 and didn't lose a bit from mid Feb all through March. I work out 3-4 times per week. An hr of hard cardio then I do abs and arms on machines.
My coach has me at 2100-2300 cals right now and I seem to be heading in the right direction again. I was up 5 lbs last week but seem to be down 2-3 from my plateau weight this week already.
Just a warning to be careful not to go too low. It can play tricks on you. I literally didn't feel hunger but ate because I knew I should. My hunger is back now and hopefully my metabolism is kicking back in.0 -
I'm 32, 4'11" and have about 1200 per day.
I'm 92.7kg which is about 204lbs I think.0 -
I am 5'3" and eating 1487. Started 170, currently 164, goal of 140. I workout 1-3 times a week depending on my husbands schedule but I'll be bumping it up after getting a bike in a couple weeks.0

Am on my 4th day of loosing weight program. I just ate 700cal/day and i already lost 2.4 kg. So happy with the results. Just counting calories of the food we eat. I dont do any intense exercise...or just nothing at all. My daily routine is just cleaning household chores...mopping floor and thats it.0

5' 143 started at 156 started on mfp at 153 eating 1200 cals. plus exercise calories when that applies.0
-
5'0" 108 lb, eating between 1350-1500 depending on my workouts for the day, trying to eat close to maintenance so I can recomp (I'm still playing with my calories though, so I might be upping them soon). I exercise 6 days a week up to 1hr. each day, cardio three days a week and strength training the other three, and a lightly active day once a week.0

I'm 5'2 with a lot to lose and I haven't get played around with the 1,540 mfp has given me. I've just started so I might have to adjust later.
Honestly it seems like the right amount-- if I choose 80-90% healthy foods I'm not hungry and have room for that 10% treats/condiments, but I know if I choose poorly I'll end up hungry at the end of the day, which keeps me honest.
I haven't weighed in yet, so I guess the proof will be coming in tomorrow.0
