I like the thread about measurements and I want to see what your idea of the ideal measurements would be for a tall girl...
Thanks
Ouch...Milly you are quite abrasive in your responses. I didn't say anything out of line but you said you ate 1400 calories to get down to 115, and you use this site...called "calorie count" so i think it would be safe to assume that you consciously control your weight, regardless of whether you do it by maintaining your habits, boring diet, and exercising or if you explicitly count. i can tell you that i know how much to eat without counting in order to maintain my weight because i have been maintaining for quite some time and it is nearly second nature now...so even if i stopped "counting" explicitly I have created an environment that makes it easy for me to not count and stay consistent with my eating. Thereby maintaining my weight. I was not rude in any way. I didn't say anything harsh, mean, or judgmental, just my observations.
Your BMI is currently 18. According to WHO standards you are underweight (mild thinness). CC and its members cannot encourage or assist you in maintaining an unhealthy weight. I kindly suggest that you reevaluate your goal weight to a healthier range. The lowest (healthiest) weight for your height would be 104lbs with a BMI of 18.5.
Have you consulted a physician to assess and discuss your current weight?
How many calories did you consume to reach your current weight?
Remember, it is not all about what the number on the scale says... You can in fact be "thinner" at a higher weight by lowering your BF% and gaining muscle while remaining at a healthy weight. Also remember that the more active you are, the more calories your body requires.
So please take the time to consult your physician, research the effects an unhealthy weight has on your body, and the proper amount of calories required for your body to function. I will find some later tonight and post them as well. :)
If you have any questions or concerns, please feel free to PM me.

Will I lose weight if I eat the same food over and over?
You can lose weight despite eating the same food day-after-day as long as you eat fewer calories than you burn. In fact, eating the... Read more
