    So happy to have found this thread! I'm 5'2" about 160 (need to step on scale but have been afraid). I'm hoping to get to 125. I've been there before! I feel like since we are smaller we just don't NEED as many calories - and I often feel like that's unfair. I love sugar and that is definitely the hardest thing for me to give up. So I try to moderate. I'm interested in knowing if any of you has been able to take the weight off and keep it off for a year or more?

    @jenkspaf
    I'm 5'3 and started at 179 two years ago and was at 137 prequarantine. Gained 6 pounds during that time after maintaining for almost a year. So now I'm working at getting back there and know it can be done!

    My workouts are great and my nutrition needs to be tightened up. So I'm at 1200-1300 calories per day because like you said, don't need them but want them! I find the most success when working on keeping my protein up and my fat down!

    I'm 5'3" and if I could only eat 1200 calories a day I would just stay fat and focus on good nutrition.
    @evesmom2 I've been working out with Jessica Smith DVD's using light weights and I can get my kayak on the roof of my car all by myself. I'm 66 and the kayak weighs about 45 lbs

    That gives me hope! I'll check out her DVD's. Thank you
