    How what is your weekly weightloss goal? Have hit goal weight and stuck around that number within a few pounds for the past couple of months. Concentrating on lowering body fat percentage now rather than what the scale says.

    What is your calorie goal per day? 1950

    I'm 27 and 5'7"
    Weekly weight loss: Don't care anymore. i have MFP set to one pound a week, but I'm looking to lose inches and reduce body fat
    I'm eating net maximum 1600 calories per day, though on average, I'm eating net 1200-1500/day; more on days with lots of activity.

    I'm 28, 6' tall, hoping to lose 1 pound a week and I eat 2000-2100 a day.

    I'd like to get below 180 and then gain more muscle. Almost there!

    Height: 5'2"
    Goal: 1.5 to 2 Pounds/week

    Calories: 1,200-1,350, depending if I do exercise. But I never go over 1,350.

    I'm just at the beginning of my weight loss journey so I can't tell you big results but it's definitely working for me and I feel great. ^_^

    When I was losing I was grossing around 2,100 - 2,200 per day. My MFP goal was 1,850 net and on average I burned and ate back about 300-350 exercise calories per day. I switched to the TDEE method and did TDEE - 20% after a few months...that turns out to be about 2,200 gross calories per day...pretty much 6 of 1 in that RE. I'm currently maintaining on 2,700 - 3,000 calories per day.

    Oh yeah...
