IIFYM vs MFP calorie goal

So based on the IIFYM website an "aggressive" fat loss calorie goal would fall around 1600 which is what I have been following, however the built in MFP system had previously told me to be eating closer to the 1300-1400 range. Has everyone else noticed this?

Personally I could not envision myself consuming less than 1500 calories, that's just cruel and unusual punishment LOL

    caloric reccomendation for MFP is just very standard. IIFYM goes into much higher detail.

    MFP had me at 1200 calories which seemed extremely restrictive.....been losing weight using TDEE.
