    I started out at 155.5 and this morning I weighed 145 in 6 weeks. Im slotted 1300 a day and I get 300-600 extra calories a day from exercise. I never eat them all. Yesterday I had 550 left at the end of the day. So I would say 1300-1500 a day with a loss of 1.5 a week. In that 6 weeks I have eaten out 5-6 times, had chocolate and wine. I just allow calories for it.

    By the way I am 46 5'3" and my CW is 145.00, My goal is 135 by June and 126 by December.

    I’m 52, 5-7” and 125. I maintain on 2000, lose at 1700 and lose really, really fast on 1300. That being said, I can’t really sustain at 1300 for more than a few days without getting binge-y. 1700 is a cakewalk.

    That's painful to read. I maintain on around 1600 (if I manage to walk out for 30mins which I mostly can do lately; otherwise just 1500). 37yo, 5'7 and 135lbs. Very sedentiary.
    Just had a rough day. 700cal above maintanance... it will take me 3-4 days to undo :( So tired of this...
