    Hey buddy, FR sent.

    My Cal goal is 1600 but I try and hit 1400 cause I end up going a bit nuts at the weekend (makes sense in my head haha)
    Seems so low a calorie goal.


    Why not lose slower and do it right? You'll prob be more likely to stick with it, and be happy while doing it.

    :)

    Hi I would like to give this a try - Just joined my fitness pal 3 days ago - My daily cal goal is 2000 - I'm very overweight - can anyone tell me if 2000 is too much ? Or shall I go down to 1200 and use exercise to bump it up ?

    Hi Kasby,

    Your calorie goal can be very different from others depending on your height, weight, age, and activity level. Since I input my activity based on an activity tracker I always use the sedentary activity factor to get a more accurate calorie goal. If you are planning on inputting workouts I would use sedentary as activity level to get a more accurate calorie goal.

    Well heck, all this positive vibes floating around here you have all sucked me into your challange, encouragement and coolness that will be had celebrating by shopping on March 1st!! That means I would have 28 days before my birthday (4 full weeks) for a new goal for then.

    I am 212, looking to lose 72 {wow that looks as bad as it sounded on paper}. I keep the calories about 1500 and don't eat back the exercise brownie points- as I would eat brownies.

    Bring on the fun, sweat and change!

    Add me in, I need the motivation!! I started, again, on the 1st and I have 30lbs to lose.
    I have been tracking my daily 1200 calories and I'm trying to drink the recommended 64oz of water a day.
