I'm 5'2 and usually stick around 1200 calories a day. I work out 5 days a week, and on those days I go up to about 1500 calories, but on rest days I try to limit myself. This isn't me starving myself - I feel 'in tune' with my body and if I'm hungry, I eat extra. For me, calories are less important that making good choices.

Silken tofu is delicious in miso, or broth-based soups. I usually add Asian greens to the soup, such as pak choy, choy sum or gai lan. The soup is great if you're feeling a little sluggish, or want something to eat without feeling yuck afterwards. You can also pop some rice in the soup if you need more of a meal.
