[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I can already tell you this thread won't go well.  it's not always about the number of calories, but the quality of those calories.  That said, I'll go first.  I take in 1200-1300 cals a day. According to my apple watch I "burn" between 500-600 cals a day. [/quote]

I monitor all exercise and calorie intake.  I gained weight this summer when I didn't monitor my intake for 2 months.  I'm 5'4" and 126 (now).  I want to go back to 116lbs so I have to monitor everything again.  My body will stop gaining when it reaches 128, which I think is my "natural" weight. [/quote]

What’s wrong with being 5’4’’ 126? That’s a 21.6 BMI. [/quote]

Nothing is wrong with it.  I'm very athletic and notice a huge difference in performance with these extra 10 lbs. I also like the way I look when I'm [b]slimmer.[/b]  It's not natural for my body, but it is my personal preference.[/quote]

I’m 5’4’’ 124 lbs and am a size 2. I can’t imagine you are much bigger than that.

I'm the PP you're responding to.  Yes, I'm asize 2 like you.  10lbs lighter and I'm still size 2. I don't think I ever "look like a bloated whale" like the other poster.  I think it's the difference between normal people slim and Hollywood slim; I prefer the latter for me. Also, I'm a runner and my times are faster when I'm slimmer. I also do yoga and  i see a difference there too.[/quote]

Hollywood slim? You mean unhealthy? [/quote]

I think she said what she means. Plus 5'4" and 116 is well within the healthy range.  Lots of folks have a preference for slimmer. Just watch a movie or open a magazine!  Being mean won't change public opinion.[/quote]

That “preference” is unhealthy. PP even said her body doesn’t naturally fall at 116. She’s trying to force her body to be 10 lbs lighter than it wants to be because she wants to be “Hollywood slim.” [/quote]
