My BMR is around 1,740 calories. MFP tells me to lose 1 pound a week, I should eat ~1600 calories a day. Is this healthy or should I up my calories?

    Age?
    Gender?
    Height?
    Weight?
    BMR?
    TDEE?


    Just for the sake of making sure the info is right before any advice is given

    MFP actually told you to eat 1600 PLUS your exercise calories. You should never eat below your BMR.
