    Is that net? so you guys are eating the calories you burn in addition to the 2000-- or is that total?

    I'm 1900 to 2000 net to maintain.

    2000 is roughly my maintenance. Unfortunately nowadays I just look at food and put on weight. Sucks getting older. I love food.

    This is not eating exercise calories, this is total.

    I am 5'5 and average 2000 per day which is my maintenance. Weight lifting 4-5 days per week, sedentary otherwise

    I'm at about 1800 calories a day. To maintain is about 2300. I'm fairly active though. I spend a lot of my job on my feet, I lift 4-6 times per week, and I run 2-3 times per week.

    It seems likely to me there would be many women eating 2000 calories, especially in maitenance, but even in weight loss
    and especially if we are talking gross calories, not net.

    I maintain on net of 1710 - but I am older, shortish and only lightly active.

    Many women would be taller, younger, more active than me - and wouldnt take much combination of those 3 factors to give one another 300 calories.
    And that's net before any excercise calories.
