    I've got mine set to 1790 a day but manage to keep it to around the 1400-1600 calories a day.
    I've been 'told off' by the app a few times for not eating enough If i've only managed 1000 or so, not that it would be a problem as it only happens sporadically.
    Been using the app since October, doesn't make it feel like i'm on a diet, it only stops me 'impulse eating' as i've got to go to the trouble of typing/scanning it in. By then i've had time to think about it and tend not to. :happy:

    I'm netting 1400 for the next few months - I'd started at 1200 but there was no way that was sustainable for a nibbler such as myself. 1400 is my base and I log about 70-80% of my exercise calories to eat back (I get the figure from my HRM).

    My wedding is in July and I'm planning to stick around 1400 until then. If I haven't reached my GW by the wedding I plan on upping my intake to about 1600/1700 net for a more long term sustainable approach.

    I did 1200 calories for several weeks, maybe a month. Some days were lower than that, others a bit over. I found I regularly stalled and needed various ways to kick my body back into weight loss. But 1400 to 1500 was much easier and I felt much better doing that.

    I started out at 1200 because MFP recommended it and found that was too low for me. About 3 weeks ago I upped it to 1400 and it has worked pretty good for me.

    Hello! MFP has me at 1230 but I find I still lose weight at 1400-1600 and do better so I'm comfortable hitting those numbers daily. I have around 80 lbs left to lose. Feel free to add me!

    Hi! I am aiming to eat 1400-1500 calories a day. I have been gone from MFP for a while, last time I lost on here was about two years ago and had me eating 1200 a day I lost a lot but gained back, was not maintainable for me. Happy to be back! Feel free to add me

    I'm eating around 1400-1600 per day and not eating back exercise calories. I tried doing 1200 calls for a while and it sucked! After I lost about 15 pounds I gained it all back because I couldn't keep going at 1200. 1400-1600 is definitely more maintainable for me. You can friend me if you'd like :smile:

    To lose 1 lb per week, I was initially set at 1560 based on my activity level and weight. I readjusted today after losing about 20lbs and I'm now set at 1480. I guess I'll see how that works for me. Feel free to add me if you'd like!
