To help people, I must say you must eat 50-75% of your exercise calories back! You need to fuel your body!
Otherwise you run the risk of:- crashing and burning
- period loss (for women)
- hair loss
- fingernail loss
- bingeing
- yoyoing back to worse than before after hitting your goal.
It's not worth it!
Your MFP goal already lets you lose weight. It's dangerous and stupid to not eat the calories you're given.0 -

31 year old female, 5'6
SW: 191 ibs (BMI of 30.9)
CW: 151 ibs (BMI of 24.3)
GW: 120 ibs (BMI of 19.3)
As for Calories...
I do alternate day fasting, so eat between 3-500 calories on fast days.
On other days I eat to my BMR, so I ate closer to 1500 at the start of my weight loss and just over 1400 now. I try to meet my requirements for fats and protein on these days, and also take multivitamins on fasting days.
I Began fasting in May, when I weighed 182 pounds. I've been fasting just over 20 weeks (5 months), and have lost around 1.5 ibs a week doing it.

Thank you all
I got to the conclusion that i was eating way too much
Conclusion based on what, how much other people are eating? Or based on what is happening with your own body?
You should decide what a good calorie deficit is for you, based on your activity level, your metabolism, your appetite, and your pace for losing weight.
