    I really like the idea of this method and seeing how big my deficit is each day, I'm going to start this tomorrow!

    Olivia I would really love for you to help me figure out my numbers and tell me if I would be a good candidate for this method. My BMR is 1404. I'm 5'2 and weigh 156. I have been stuck losing and gaining the same 4 pounds for a month now. MFP has me eating 1380 to lose 1 pound a week. I have 27 pounds to lose. I workout 5 times a week doing Jillian Michaels 30 DS, ripped in 30, horseback riding and short 25 minute runs. Where do I go from here not sure what my maintenance is and in addition to that I am thoroughly confused... Do you need any other numbers from me??? I also consider myself lightly active because I am a daycare teacher and stand and walk around pretty much all day. Thanks so much :happy:

    I have set my net goal to be 2000, which is what MFP believes my maintenance is - I have done this so I can see my daily deficit and my weekly deficit easily

    What does MFP say your maintenance calories are?
