Active 5"2 women calories for weight loss

If you had difficulties losing on 900 - 1200 it indicates you are most likely not weighing your food. Get a good scale and weigh all your solids and select the accurate corresponding entry. Measure all your liquids. If you're active you should be able to lose at 1400 calories. I'm 5'2, 39yo, active, and went from 120lb to 110lb on 1400 a day. You may want to invest in an activity tracker to get an idea of what you're burning in a day. They're not 100% accurate but over time you can gauge your calorie intake for the day. I also recommend you figure out your TDEE - Google TDEE calculator - you should be able to find one. Make sure your weightloss goals are realistic - you're not go my to lose 10 lbs in one month in a healthy fashion - it's going to take time to get down to 110lbs - plan on losing a half pound a week. Good luck!

I had the same issue when I was down to my last 10 lbs. I went from 133 to 111 but back up now. Honestly, I had to trick my body by giving it one heavier meal, once a week. I also changed my workout routine. Before I was running miles at a steady pace but started incorporating hills, speed and weights. So it depends what you mean by intense workout, total calories burned or burst of intensity (to the point of puking). Also, I made my workout harder each week by increasing the intensity without increasing the duration and before I knew it, my scale was going down with no issue. I was also able to eat heavier and maintain. However, that all went downhill for me when I quit working out. Now I'm back to square one.

I am 5ft 3 and currently trying to get down to 117 again possibly 112 but haven’t decided yet I think 112 may be a little too far. I’m current sitting at 128 so have about 11 lbs to go.

Last year I got to my target of 117, I was completely focused and weighed everything, log everything, exercised to the max, stuck to a strict 1200 cals and eat back half my exercise cals. It was very hard but I was so focused. It took me 10 weeks of extremely hard living to lose 3.6 lbs and get to that 117 goal.

Slowly with a few good holidays and a neck injury through a car accident I put the weight back on and reached my heaviest ever of 135lbs. After months of putting it off because of how tough it felt last time I decided to shift the weight again. This time I’ve done it different, I bought a Fitbit charge HR.

I’ve lost 7.2lbs in my first 3 weeks and I know it’s only 3 weeks but never had results as good as this before. I eat to the Fitbit TDEE and find it so much easier. I don’t feel hungry at all and eating about 1400 cals per day with a 1000 cal defiect. I still weight and log everything but don’t have to try and calculate exercise burn and eat back amounts. I used MFP to log the food but I only eat as much as the fitbit app tells me too. I really don’t feel hungry or like I’m starving, I don’t crave or want for anything and I’m exercising way less too.

Hey I'm 5'1 and 104 lbs trying to lose another 6 pounds or so. I have my goal set at 1200 calories per day and I try to eat small meals or snack every 2 hours. And if I go to the gym I'll do an hour of cardio. I am able to stay under my limit 6 out of 7 days and I give myself one day a week to enjoy food without restricting! What I try to do is buy foods that are a low calorie option. Even for small things like ketchup and butter I get the lowest calorie brand. For breakfast I'll have a medium egg (not large) with a low calorie English muffin (they have ones that are only 100 calories instead of the standard 120). And of course weigh things that are not packaged so you don't underestimate. Small things like that make a difference at the end of the day! Feel free to add me so you can look at my diary for any food ideas
