Breakfast: tea with lemon and sometimes a bit of honey
Lunch today was 1/2 a minneola orange and a roll (delicious home baked)
Dinner. Some leftover chicken dish with potatoes and onions, green beans and tomatoes PLUs another bit of leftover pesto pasta with shrimp

Then later while watching tv I will likely eat 1/2 pint of ice cream which I do MANY evenings

I did 1.5 hr stretch class today. And some days I walk or have horse riding lesson but mostly drive kids many hours every week and do lots of stairs running up and down doing laundry. I am very happy and lucky to be thin! But the age spots on my hands make me look at least 85!

I find it is much easier to fall asleep when dieting because my body needs calories and I literally do not enough energy to stay awake.

Not at all. I log food now that I am in my training blocks for triathlon and can spit out the same information. It doesn’t even take that much time to record but it’s important to make sure you are fueling properly. Under-eating and overeating are both easy to do with a ton of cardio. One hour in during a bike session i usually have some nutrition available.

I’ll probably eat one more thing before 10 pm and then I’m done until noonish tomorrow.

I’m 5 foot 4.5 inches. About 127 pounds.

This is like healthy what should be average. I'm you're height and 12 lbs less and that has not been deemed "thin." Nothing wrong with that, but I think people here are looking for "skinny" not "healthy weight."

Start at 5 feet 100 lbs go up 5 lbs for every inch.

This is PO. I’m thin. You are practically anorexic. Do you have ANY muscle mass?

5'5 and 115 lbs is not anywhere near "practically anorexic" and I don't think anyone would even find me notably thin. I have tons of muscle mass, I lift heavy 3+ days a week and am very strong for a smaller woman.

I don’t think so. That height and weight should make her around a size 2. I don’t think you need to be size 0 to be deemed thin even on DCUM.
