    I eat a lot... I usually eat at least 2000 a day... sometimes closer to 3000.

    I've been in the 140s for 3 years (200 lbs before that)

    I eat anywhere between 2000-2200 calories. But I'm still overweight (71kg at 5ft 4in) and work out at least 5 days a week. It's what works for me.

    I'm 5'5, currently 146, and eating an average of 1300 a day (sometimes I go a bit over on the weekends, so Monday and Tuesday are lower to account for that - so the 1300 is the weekly average) - trying to get back down to 126 which where I was in June of last year and what feels comfortable to me.

    5'3", about 132 lbs, and 29 years old. I eat 1900 (which already includes my exercise calories), though I do exercise a lot (when I determined that TDEE # I used 5-6 hrs of vigorous exercise per week).

    ETA when I am on my weekly target, I am losing weight eating this amount.

    5'5", 50, started at 160 and was eating 1600 + exercise calories; now down to 131, trying to maintain at 1800+ and still slowly losing.

    It's possible I'm a outlier.

    Age 42, 5'5", 25% BF, 172 pounds (129 pounds lean mass), maintain at 2700-2800 calories per day. Currently implementing a cut to 2100-2200 calories on non-lifting days...I have been losing about 1% bodyfat per month and have been staying the same weight. I don't have a goal weight but I would like to be at 20% body fat ultimately. Active: Crossfit 3-4 x per week, power lift 3x per week, oly lifting class 2 hours per week, run/hike 1-2 hours per week, yoga class once or twice per week, and I have a job that requires me to stand up and move around the entire time.

    I now eat 1580 since I have an active job.I think I would struggle eating only 1200 calories a day as I reach that number by lunch time

    I'm 5'4" and 167 lbs. I'm eating 1500 calories a day. I've lost 11 pounds in the last 11 weeks. Also lost 11 inches off my measurements. I go to Curves and walk and do yard work like lawn mowing. My concern is that my net calories are under 1200 most days and the instructions say not to do that. I'm also wondering if I should eat more or less since I exercise most every day quite a bit.

    I'm 5' 6" (ish) eating between 1200 and 1700 calories a day plus exercise calories. Depending on how I feel - I don't care if I don't lose weight at this point, but I don't mind losing weight. So I allow up to maintenance.
