My maintenance calorie goal is 1720. I try to reach my weekly goal rather than daily b/c once a week I go way over so I usually go under a little the other days.0 -

5'10, 140Ibs, 120Ibs lean mass,
Maintain on about 1800 without exercise, if sedentary, and 2600+ with exercise.0 -
I'm 42, 5'5", and 115lbs.
My starting weight was 176, and my goal weight was 120, but I kept losing a bit more after hitting it.
I currently maintain on ~1950 calories based on a moderately active TDEE. I was stable since February but have recently been experiencing some variability, I think due to a reduction in my thyroid medicine. Not sure yet if it will mean reducing my calories.0 -

I'm maintaining my weight with 2120 calories, my goal weight is actually 127lbs but I am now 27 weeks pregnant so I've switched to maintaining my weight and just being healthy and then once bubs is born and I have finished breastfeeding I will be switching back to a goal weightloss of 2lbs a week and starting a bodybuilding sort of workout plan:D0 -

2200 NET (My net was 2150 per MFP, but I found I lost slowly at that goal). Currently gross 2500-2600 a day.0 -
Female, 32, 5"7 (172 cm)
This morning I weighed about 64.7 kilos or 140 pounds. I seemed to maintaing at around 65 kilos which is good.
Mfp had me too low and I was still losing. I am still figuring it out, but I have being eating 3000 cals sometimes a little more on work days, and tend to be a little under on weekends. I believe I was under eating when I was losing , because I lost so fast and kept losing. It turns out I am more active than I thought and even the highest activity rating was too low. I am slowly figuring out what works for me. It's not a perfect science.0 -
F, 33, 5ft 6 hw 272, cw 189 (4 1/2 months pregnant) maintenance is 2100 before exercise0

Currently eating between 1800 and 2500 and not losing or gaining, so guess that's maintenance0
