[quote=Anonymous][twitter][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]OP what is your current weight? You sound like someone who eats healthy and are probably not even overweight.

Hello! This is OP. I am a late thirties woman who is trying to lose some weight and build healthy exercise and eating habits as I enter my 40s and beyond. I am only 4’10 so I need to be pretty strict with my calorie intake. I’m focusing on Whole Foods protein and fiber rich diet with nutrient dense ingredients.

I haven’t yet done a RMR test but I’m trying not to exceed 1200 calories per day. I use a food scale to measure my portions and better understand how much food I’m consuming. First realization has been… I have been eating way too much food! [/quote]

1200 is ok if you want to lose weight over 2-4 weeks, it’s not a healthy calorie budget for anyone over long term. If you are petite, I’d say try to work up to 1400 - 1600 to lose weight, double your protein intake, add Greek yogurt and some almonds, up the salad (maybe large salad twice a day), add fish generously (8oz and up).
