    Below 1200 net is too low is what the experts say when losing weight.

    I use http://calorieneedscalculator.com/ or just MFP

    Plug your information into the MFP guided goals section. If you are looking to lose weight, select the 1lb/week option. That would be your lowest. It is different for everyone.

    Depends on age. How old are you?
