Well, I'm 18 years old, female of course, my height is 5ft 5inch, and I'm on 1,200kcals per day. (Also I live in the UK.)

So, if any of these apply to you too, (or not, I'm just happy to make friends on here for the support), I would LOVE to be friends with you, and share tips, and motivation and whatnot.

Add me? Please? :)

P.S. Please note that I'm only interested in health, and losing weight the healthy way. I no longer concentrate on becoming thin, because, well, appearances aren't everything.

Stay strong people, keep positive! :)

    I am 6'5" tall and I am on over double the 1200 calories and a man, so I don't qualify.
    I am commenting here because you all inspire me.
    Any time I want to complain about having enough calories....I cannot. I think of all of you that are on 1200 calories and realize that if you can do it, I can get under my caloric goals! I am also amazed at how tasty the 1200 calories appear on your logs.

    Hi, I'm 5'5 and also on 1200 calories. I have struggled, but have reaped the rewards as well. I would like to lose another 20-30 pounds. Feel free to add me, I love to give (and get ) lots of motivation and inspiration!

    I'm almost 5'5," but I eat more. My target is around 1700. A little more if I exercise, a little less if I don't. But feel free to add me:
    I am focused on eating good food: both clean and tasty
    Becoming fitter
    Changing my lifestyle to something permanent and sustainable

    You definitely won't here me talking about starving myself to drop X pounds in 2 days before an event. :)

    I'm 5'6". 35 years old. Lost 20 lbs last year to reach my 2008 weight. Gained some back. Starting over. Realized that I have to track even WHEN I reach my goals.

    I do something active each day.

    I'm 5 foot 5 as well :) I'm eating around that amount right now, but doing juicing, and cutting out meats and dairy etc for a week or 2 as an experiement...actually finding i'm not nearly as hungry ...i;m not going crazy...just just eating when i'm hungry, and in addition to the juicing, eating a ton of fresh fruits and veggies on thier own...and nuts...with occasional beans in a salad... if I feel it effecting my workouts/muscle I will add more protein by the way of whey protein/greek yougurt...been eating this way since monday, and actually feeling healthier then normal, and not having hunger issues! Was ibspired by the documentary * Fat sick and nearly dead* to add fresh juicing...been amazing how good it tastes, and how easy it is. :) Seeing this as a * reboot* as the site about the movie phrases it... even though i am not strictly juice fasting.

    Before that I was eating 1300-1800 depending upon workouts... ( per my bodybugg, I generally hit 3000 total calories or more on workout days... so I was eating a portion of my exercise cals back... :) )

    feel free to add me if you would like :)

    I've only been a member for 2 days so I'm trying to still figure this all out. So if you add that you exercised, you get more calories for the day? I too struggle with staying at 1200 but this would definitely help me feel better about going over a little.

    5'5" on 900 calories? I would not be able to survive. Do you exercise regularly?
