    Between 1300 and 1900 depending on my work out schedule. Right now I am on injured reserve (pulled something in my leg and have to take 4 to 5 days off completely) so I am trying to keep it closer to 1300.

    I'm 129 (5'4)

    I am aiming for 1300, but I feel like I'm getting into a rut so I might cut it back a little bit. I've eaten over my calories two days in a row now and I think it's (weirdly) making me more hungry. Either that or I am just going through a bit of an emotional upheaval and it's affecting my hunger.

    Hey I have been trying to figure this out too. I have been at it for about 8 weeks now and dropped 12 pounds the first 6. my goal is set to 1680 and I normal eat closer to 1700-1900. I am a male 6' tall and 242 pounds 21 years old. I have a retail job part time 3 or 4 days a week that I walk to 3.3 miles. other than that I don't move that much other than to walk to class and the grocery store. I keep worrying that I am not eating enough calories but I also have been feeling great and the original OMFG I AM SO HUNGRY feeling has gone away. anyways I am set at sedentary right now kinda wondering if I should bump it to lightly active and eat more.

    My total intake over the last 30 days was 2338/day. 46 year old male, 5' 10", 158 lb. or so; in the last month I have bicycled 591 miles, averaging about 1.5 hours/day. (We have had great weather!)

    ETA: I am probably on my bike 5-6 days a week, a mixture of long and short rides; that 1.5 hours is an average. Many of my rides are 2-4 hours, and some are more like 20 minutes (commuting, for example).

    25 M 6'0 139lbs. Right now I'm eating minimum 4000 per day. I lose weight at 3k.

    I'm a distance runner, but right now I'm still recovering from a spine fusion #2 (scoliosis) so I'm just sittin on my *kitten* doing nothing. Lifting light weights. That's about it. So far I got my BW from 131 three weeks ago to 139.7! I'm trying to gain into the 160s.

    5'4" 163lbs and usually just under 1500 calories. I cycle calories so sometimes it is more, other days it is less. I'm losing half a pound per week and very happy with that.

    It's interesting to see what everyone is doing :smile: I'm a 5'8" female and I eat between 1800 - 2500 a day, anything less than 1800 and I feel awful! It's usually around 2000 but if I have a cheat day (which has been known to run into the 4000s :embarassed: ) I will drop it down to 1,800 for a few days.
