Anyone eating around 1k calories?

Are any short women out there eating close to 1k calories and still losing? I'm almost 6 months out and finding it really difficult to eat less than 900-1000k at this point. Anyone else?

ugh, that's what I fear might be the case for me too. I think I need to just make myself eat 800 and deal with it!
I'm 8 months out and I was eating 800 calories at 6 months when I hit maintenance. Now I'm at just shy of 8 months and I eat 1,300-1,400/day and it's not hard. I'm still losing too.

Can you get a resting metabolic rate test? It doesn't really have to do with your height, so much as your metabolic rate + current weight.

Many, many people here find that 1,000 - 1,100 is their maintenance range. Most people need to eat 600 - 800 calories/day to continue losing weight.
