    Are you eating 2100 + the calories you burn exercising?

    unless you are a 6ft man--I certainly wouldn't go anywhere NEAR 2100 cals a day. I try to eat my big meal for breakfast or lunch and eat NO carbs after my noon meals. I also walk 5 miles a day within an hour to up the burn, so I usually exercise out my cals for the day. I find 1200 cals is my max and rarely go near that total.

    Yes. MFP says that I need eat 2100 per day to lose 1/2lb per week, and I cardio for 1 hours and burn 500 calo, and 40minutes of weight lifting 5 day a week. So now I plan to eat down around 1800 calories
