[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I am short so have to eat pretty low to lose, like 1400 a day and I generally exercise hard to give myself more like 1600 to eat overall. But I can maintain without counting for a long time. I diet again when I go 2-3 lbs above my ideal weight and that helps it from getting out of hand. Only time I was near overweight was post baby number two and I was right on the BMI overweight line. Lost it by her first bday but it was hard. I keep my ideal weight around 112-114 at 5 foot 2 because I am muscular and like my curves. I think having a reasonable ideal weight also makes it easier to maintain. When I was much younger I dieted waaay down and got into some pretty disordered habits. Don’t want to go there again.[/quote]

I am 5'2" 112 and I eat about 3000 a day to maintain. [/quote]

Wow! PP here. I don’t count calories when I am maintaining but I think I would gain on 3000 if it were a regular thing. I do find I can indulge quite a bit before I gain anything though. [/quote]

5'3 and 110 here. I have days when I eat 3000 calories but even with my workouts and training I couldn't do that on a daily basis. I eat healthily, so getting 3000 calories of quality nutrition in is really difficult on a daily basis. I eat 3-4000 on the weekends and on wed (I run long mileage, 12+ most Thursdays) and more like 2000 the other days. [/quote]
