    26 lbs in that time is a lot to lose unless you are VERY over-weight. It's not worth doing it at speed unless you would like to keep eating that way for life (and believe me, it wouldn't be a lovely life). The view in here is that you are trying to lose weight slowly but consistently and eating as much as you can while still losing. I'm doing 1/2 lb a week and am now only 4 lbs from my goal weight.

    As your TDEE is 2039, the suggested -15% from TDEE would be 1733. Personally, I tend to eat around -10% which would be around 1835 calories or so.
