    I'm 5'3, mid-30's, currently 126lb (was 128.8 and 24.5% BF back in Feb.) and have my calories set at about 1500/day. I eat back most of my exercise calories most days (usually 300-500 cals.day). I couldn't function at 1100 cals/day.

    Thank you all for your advice. Right now I set my MFP to lose 1 pound per week at lightly active so I am going to be eating 1360 calories, and when I exercise, eating back my net calories. My activity level won't be anywhere near how it used to be (the 800-1000 deficit). I will eventually increase intensity of exercise as I get comfortable with higher calories.

    I already feel slightly better today after eating a higher amount :) I will see if I begin losing weight again and my energy levels improve. I definitely need to fix my metabolism! Thanks again everyone.
