Need a friend to check my facts for me..

Could someone please confirm this for me, because like others I am scared to up my calories!
I posted a new topic since I was afraid this might get lost in the shuffle and I really am hoping for an answer this evening. I am trying to understand how much I should be eating to consistently lose 1lb/week. If you have a moment, can you check my understanding here?

I found that my BMR is 1450 and my TDEE is 1740. Based on reading, this is what I am assuming to be true- please tell me if I am wrong, I won't be offended! I should be NETTING between 1450 and 1740 per day. I read somewhere that I should try to NET around 200 over my BMR, so around 1650?

Currently MFP has me set to 1480, but I'll be honest, I am 90% of the time netting less than 1480 except on a once in awhile cheat day. Should I really be netting 1480 or more on a daily basis?

Thank you for checking my facts.. just being paranoid.. I am very appreciative for the support.
