    I eat 1615. And I don't eat exercise calories back. I don't have much to lose. About 8lb or at most 16lb.

    At the end of the week I average between 1600-1800, though you'll see my daily goal listed as 1500 at the moment. I was wiping my deficit out with my weekend shenanigans at the 1600 daily goal. Just seeing if I can start losing again if I drop during the week.

    Currently in the 1700 range!

    Started at 12 for like, a week. Then, bumped up to 14 for about a month. Then stuck around the 1600 range from July onto January or February.

    42 pounds down, 11 pounds to go. Feel free to add me, guys!

    I eat around 1800, which according to my TDEE is supposed to be a 200 calorie deficit. I'm really in maintenance right now, but I try to eat at 1800 to give myself some wiggle room since I don't weigh my food or track regularly. Seems to be working so far - my weight fluctuates within three lbs but I've seen no actual weight gain in quite some time.

    I'm assuming everyone here who eats around 1800 calories exercises a fair bit too??

    5 days a week, a combination of cardio and heavy lifting.

    Yeah I don't think there'd be many females out there who could maintain or lose on 1800 calories without exercise.

    I'm late to the thread but feel free to add me. I eat between 1500-2100 calories a day, depending on exercise. I usually work out 4 times a week.

    I'm aiming to eat around 1700 (I'm not always consistent with logging at the moment though) & I'd love some more MFP friends! Feel free to add me! :)

    Oh, agreed! I'm not even very tall (5"2'), but I think I'm maintaining on 1800-2000 because I'm pretty active for my age:

    2 days/wk: Full body heavy lifting routine that includes several compounds lifts like squats, deadlifts, etc.

    2 days/wk: Run for 30 minutes followed by 30 minutes of bodyweight/light weight training

    1 day/wk: 60 minute cardio class (used to be Zumba but I switched to Body Pump last week because there's a new instructor at my gym and I can't stand her teaching style).

    I would guess I'd probably have to go down to 1600 calories or less to do a "cut", but right now I'm losing plenty of inches despite maintaining weight that I'd rather eat all the things than worry about the number on the scale.

    My goal is 1700, but I regularly eat a bit more from my exercise calories. I tried dropping down to 1500 and was hungry and mad so gave it up. Would love friends who eat as much as me. I've been losing about a pound a week; 18 down and 60ish to go.

    On the days I don't exercise I usually only eat 1800. When I exercise I eat over 2000. I'm still loosing... But I'm also 5'9"
