I started MFP this morning and I am starting to think I am being too aggressive to soon and need assistance re-calculating my calories. My stats are:
27 male
6'3
265lbs
My BMR is 2263 with a sedentary TDEE of 2716. I chose to go with 2lb wight loss a week so my calorie limit is 1716. That is a lot below my BMR which is what my body is required to survive healthy. I am starving right now and I believe this is to little of a calorie consumption for a man of my size. Can anyone give their input on this? Any and all advice is welcome!

I think you answered your own question! Your TDEE - 20% is still 2172. I would try 2300?0

I'm not even close to being an expert! But with MFP, you would be eating back your exercise calories. Have you been doing that?
Have you read this post?
