I have trouble meeting my net calorie goal

Calimama123

Anyone else have trouble meeting their net calorie goal? When I work out alot I can never seem to do it. I don't want to screw up my metabolism, but I cannot eat 2500 cals a day. I don't know what I should do...work out less, or just really try to eat more and hit that number. It seems crazy to eat that much food and still lose though...thoughts? My goal is 1200, and my net is usually somewhere around 800
