    Who ever you want...go 1500 and make both happy. Reality is start with the highest and move lower as/if you see fit. I'd start at the lower and move up cause it's way harder to subtract calories than it is to add them, but that's just me. You need to find what works for you

    Are you logging your exercise and eating the calories MFP adds for it? I suspect the two numbers will be closer if you do.
