I've just come out of maintenance to lose 5 more lbs and my calorie goal, before exercise, is 1,480. With exercise it's around 1,600-1,700. I'm 5ft, 6in and am currently 124, working towards 119lbs (started out in the 170s last year). Exercise is walking and a bit of running.0

GW 125 (I lost close to 40 pounds in 2006, but have put some back on)
I have my cals set at 1200, but that rarely (if ever) happens. I usually end up eating around 1500-1800 cals/day. The 1200 cal thing does not work for me. I don't want to starve myself.0 -
On normal days, 1200-1600, on unplanned or planned 'cheat' days 1500-2500
Kind of in between wanting to maintain and lose, so really whatever I feel like on the day lol0 -
I want to lose a few more pounds but have managed to maintain on 1600 calories for 4 months despite having a deficit of about 400 calories a day.
