[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]BMI 17.8 5’6.75 113 lbs

Breakfast: coffee with 1 T cream

Lunch: smoothie made with kale, coconut/almond milk, frozen fruits, banana, 2 T hemp seeds. Either leftovers, almonds, or whatever else I have. Today I had a slice of homemade focaccia with olives, almonds, and rosemary.

Dinner: Burmese Coconut-Chicken Noodle soup. Yesterday I had Costco rotisserie chicken with asparagus and rice.

Dessert: sometimes ice cream, cookie, or brownie. Usually a matcha latte.

This is super sad.[/quote]

It's sad that pp doesn't recognize that this is a healthy diet. For a small frame person (even at that height), it's more than enough calories. The reason that first pp can eat this way is because the foods  are high in protein and healthy fats. The quality of the food matter more than the quantity of the food. [/quote]

113 lbs at around 5'-7" is clinically underweight.[/quote]

BMI is just a guiding tool. It is not an accurate tool for many people.

I am 5'8". At 130 pounds, my BMI is in a healthy weight range. It is 19.8.

However, I looked extremely thin at 132 pounds. My ribs were protruding out.

BMI is way off for me.

It could  be slightly off for PP. (she is very close to BMI's standard).  She might have a very small frame and less than average muscle tone. [/quote]

I'm also 5'8 and 130. The most I've weighed (non-pregnancy) was 140, and I was called big, thick, fat, you name it. I look best at 125. Very small framed.

Yesterday I had a soy milk latte for breakfast, a Chop't palm beach salad for lunch, and 2 slices of pizza for dinner. Somewhere in there I had 2 glasses of wine and a handful of peanuts. [/quote]

Im also 5 ft 8 in but just over a 20 BMI with a weight around 137. I am curvy and have thin limbs and carry weight in my upper hips and lower stomach area. It’s nearly impossible for me to get below 135... during a stressful time at work all I was eating for months was a large salad a day with some occasional soup and bread and I was around 134.

Yesterday I ate: black tea, two pieces of toast with jam and full fat butter, one Dunkin’ Donuts iced coffee with cream and sugar, 6 donut holes, two homemade chicken tacos, and a large bubble tea.
