    It has worked for me. I'm 5' 3" 148 pounds. A 10% cut for me is 1700. But the first few months I was on here I ate 2,000 a day and lost consistently. For me at least, the scooby and fat2fit calculators are within like 5 calories of each other. Like others have said, try it. If after a few weeks you haven't lost, or have gained, drop the number down some. If you are losing to fast, raise it. It sounds like you are pretty active.

    I'm 28, wt 248, workout 4-5times a week. Starting P90X. It says my bf % is 49. The moderately active says 2942 and 20% of that is 2354. IS that what I am supposed to eat daily? Also I don't eat any of the calories back from my workouts which according to my HRM range from 600-1100. The Katch one says I should eat 1637 which is what mfp also said and I also ate back my workout calories. and then the harris one say 1898. So my calculations of 2354 seem so high. Am I doing it right?
