Breastfeeding, p90x and calorie confusion

Lisa_Aguiar2114

Hi everyone! I am on my first week of p90x classic. I am still nursing my daughter. She's 13 months and down to 3-4 times a day. My question comes with my daily calorie intake. I think my bmr is 1540. I used to put in another 500 for nursing as well as my calories burned from my workout but I was finding that I couldn't eat them all. I usually go by the number listed under "food" and not what I have netted. The "food" number is anywhere from 1500-1700. I was just curious if this sounded okay. I ask because I just had to redo my bmr and I dropped my nursing from 500 to 250 since she has slowed down so much. Any help is greatly appreciated cause I am really confused. Thanks in advance.
