Hi I've upped my calories from 1200 to 1700 my weightloss is still slow

I'm eating 1700 Gross

I've worked out my TDEE -20% = 1785

Should eat to gross that or eat to net it on the box up the top of diary?

Seems High on exercise day to net = 2400 calories ?

I'm sure I'd gain I've been eating 1700 gross average net 900 ?

Thanks

    This method relies on eating your cut (1785) every day and make sure your net (food-exercise) is greater than your BMR everyday.

    Hope that helps.
