    How old are you? 23
    How tall? 5'4.5"
    Weekly weight loss goal? 1lb per week (actually averaging at 2lbs per week)
    Calorie goal? MFP is set to 1560, but total intake is always around 500 less than what I burn for the day....except for the past couple of days where I have been sick and eating at maintenance.

    I am 47 and im currently at 1600 per day after I get back from hawaii in 8 weeks I think I may spike my workouts and calories back up to 1800 or so ... I started at 2300 Ive lost about 30 since the 7th of January. Pretty much a 1.6 average per week with pcos ... Im happy with it. Sometimes it feels to slow but if I go way down to like 1200 I think I will slow my metabolism down to nothing.

    You're supposed to eat at least some, if not all, of your exercise calories back, so that you NET 1200 (which is already very low).

    1lb a week.
    MFP has me set to 1200 calories which I thought was too low but I eat all my back calories (and I add in every little thing I do all do because 1200 is the number of calories you need to lie in bed all day) I end up eating between 1,300 and 1,700. I'd tweak it but I lost 2lbs this week after being stuck for several months and I eat whenever I'm hungry.
