Hi there.......
I am Laura and I just began on MFP. I am working on losing 60 lbs and am wondering what is a decent amount of calories to eat a day . MFP set it at 1200 for me but I am wondering if that is too low.
Anyone have any thoughts??

It all depends on how much you weight to how much you want to lose. My personal trainer did some kind of a calculation that came up with my magic number. It if helps, here are my stats. I weight 216lb and want to at 140lb. She put me at 1,500 calories. Keep at it!0
