I dont count any calories.
I eat melon for breakfast.
mostly green leaves for lunch,and maybe a steamed veggie for supper.
Snacks are those green drinks,sprouts,and various smoothies.
Maybe 1500 tops?

i don`t eat enough but i`m having a hard time adding calories without raising my fat cuz i`m just not that hungry. i can eat an apple and it`ll satisfy me for over an hour. i can eat a huge salad but theres not many cals in there unless i add avo and nuts and stuff. i`m trying to keep fat at a minimum but having a hard time consuming the rec amount of cals for my desired weight which is around 1300 i hear. now i`m at about 1000

how can you survive on 1000 calories a day??

the reason why i'm asking all these questions, is because i feel like i could eat AT LEAST 2500 calories a day, but honestly, my body just can't need that much. I'm not very active, so overeating would only cause a weight gain, wich i don't want, because i have a couple of pounds to lose....

i`m not sure...i just do. i`m not a big eater and as i stated earlier, i`m just not hungry throughout the dy cept for my breakfast smoothie, a piece of fruit a bit later, some sort of lunch like a plateful of tomatoes cilantro cukes avo whatever i feel like or some "pasta" made out of zucchini and dinner and a few snacks in between. all are low cal fruit though so that`s where i have trouble getting my calories up.

About 1800 when I am active, about 1500 when I am not. If you are doing relatvely low-fat that means eating like a horse, which I do.

I am 105 lbs and 5' 3.5". I need that half inch!

Wow arugula! I could have written your post word for word. I am the same height, same weight and eat the same amounts you do based on activity level.
