120 ish and 50. I don't count calories but I'd guess in the 1500-1600 range just knowing ballpark of calories in things. Some days it's probably closer to 2000+ but honestly I really don't know. Or care.

Basically this shows that people between 100-120 are genetically petite/thin, and it’s not a struggle. These people are a small percent of the population. For everyone else who tries to be thin, which is often 120-140lbs depending on height, it takes a lot of discipline and avoiding certain foods plus regular exercise!

Hon, I feel for you. This is miserable. You can gain a few pounds and still be a perfectly acceptable weight for 5' 2"! I just worry that this can't last.

I’m technically 122 right now, age 45, have always been under 120 my whole life up until now. I don’t count calories, I usually have a light breakfast or skip, skip lunch but have snacks, and a small dinner. I eat whatever I want whenever. If it’s something I enjoy, like pizza, I could have three slices in one sitting. I’m 5’3”. I don’t think of myself as healthy btw, just thin. I need to exercise more.

very similar. I'm like barely 5'.

I was 127lbs at my heaviest. I was eating and snacking quite a bit.

I changed my diet a bit and starting exercising more.

usually oatmeal for breakfast
smallish lunch -- not too fatty, but I do still eat frozen foods from Trader Joes
snack -- usually like popcorn, pita crackers, hummus
smallish dinner

Eat out once or twice a week. Occasionally have a small dessert.

It's about portion size.

I now weigh 115. I did get down to like 112, but I seem to have gained 3lbs back somehow.

I also don’t count but, for me, it would vary quite a bit from day to day. Some days I’m really hungry and others I don’t have much of an appetite.

Before kids, I weighed 108, after kids I weigh 112. I used to eat 1500-1800 calories per day. Now, I'm more sedentary, I eat 1000-1500 calories a day.

Because of metabolic issues, I now eat 4-5 times a day, snacks and small meals. I used to eat basically 2 meals a day, now I have small 3 meals and 1 or 2 small snacks.

I don't count but it's got to be 2000+. I eat breakfast, lunch, dinner and several snacks. This seems to work for me for maintenance. (I'm closer to 120 and not that tall at 5'4) I only eat when I'm hungry put I seem to be hungrier than a normal person.

I do like 2 Peloton rides 5 or 6 days per week to make up for my sedentary desk job, but nothing hardcore.

I don't know, I've never counted calories. But I only eat when I'm hungry, and I stop when I feel full (usually leaving some of the plate.) Usually have two meals and one snack.

I am about 115 but naturally thin, exercise 3-4x a week, and don’t count calories. Healthy breakfast, relatively healthy lunch, and go out to eat at least once on weekends and takeout once a week too. I drink sparingly, no soda or juice either.

If you weight between 100-120 lbs how many calories do you eat a day?
