    My goal is set to 1710 cals a day for a 0.5 lb loss a week. My Fitbit generally adds anywhere from 50-300 calories a day depending on how active I've been. I typically eat a minimum of 1500/day. I will admit I was off track for awhile and wasn't logging and just started getting back into it this past week. Feel free to add!

    I CUT BACK to 1600+ cals and have lost so far. This worked for me last time too (about a year ago). My goal is a modest 1 lb/wk loss. I have total of 20 I want to lose. This week was about 4 lb, but of course I expect that to slow down! Exercise and an active lifestyle are key. Youth prob helps, too. I'm 53, so I guess I'm doing better now than I will at 70....
    Feel free to add me. I'd like tips on keeping calories in my life, too!

    My goal is 1200 so I may not be helpful, but my actual average over the past 6 months is 1550 and my average over the past four weeks (with the holidays) was just under 1750. It varies week to week. I've lost 33 pounds so far even at that number (I'm 5' 4.5"). I'll send you a friend request anyway!

    I've learned 3 things.
    #1. Even tho MFP is saying 1230 cals is my goal, it is NOT enough. I'm aiming for 1400.
    #2. I need to keep eating every 2-3 hours.
    #3. Once a week, I need to have one sweet item to shock my body.

    I have seen my best results following these three goals
