Hello fellow petites! I am a 5'1 and 138lbs female. I have lost 44lbs by eating 1400-1500 kcal/day and doing HIIT trainings, but started strength training recently and DAMN am I ravenous all the time!
I recalculated my TDEE, and with moderate activity level (3 strength sessions a week, 1 or 2 cardio + daily walking) it came to 2100 kcal/day. So, a slight deficit would be around 1700 kcal/day...
I heard many stories from other petite women how they have to survive on 1000-1200 kcal a day to get their weight off, and with that in mind 1700 seems like A LOT of food. Am I doing this right?
Thank you for your thought and help, we've got this!
