Who eats roughly 1500?

Hi to all of you! A long time ago when I was flirting with a new, healthy lifestyle, I tried the 1200 thing. I COULDN'T HANG! Lol

When it comes to a lifestyle change now....this time I'm putting a ring on it.

I just dropped from 1450 to 1400 this week and eat about half of my exercise calories.

My calorie intake is 1,590 right now, and my diary is open. Anyone can add me!

I'm new to fitness pal I'm at 1500 could really use some advice and help on what to eat and what kind of exercise I should be doing I had my baby 7 months ago and have gained a total of 70 plus lbs

I eat around 1530 to 1600 cals but I net around 1100 after exercise.

I find I'm slowly but surely losing at net 1400-1500 calories. I don't want to lose too quickly for fear of losing muscle (I had lost 5 pounds in as many weeks last year, but according to before-and-after DEXA scans, 3 of the pounds were muscle. I am losing more slowly and lifting more to make that less likely).

I do 1200 + half my 'exercise calories' which puts me at about 1400 on walking days. Not too hard to do, since my husband is on doctor supervised high protein, low carb, so I'm eating lots of protein that helps keep me full.
My real problem is that I don't get splurges like I expected to. I expected to have splurge days where I would go out for a burger or whatever, but since I work from home, I don't tend to eat out during the day, and my husband comes home having blown out his fat and carb allowance having lunch with coworkers, so we rarely go out for food.

I'm trying to readjust my food balance so get a little more 'treat' and don't feel quite so deprived.

Mine is 1460 and will go over based on my workout.

1600 w/o exercise 1600-2000 if I workout

I eat 1600 which about TDEE -20% for me. I try to eat this consistently and not eat back exercise calories unless I am super hungry. It works great for me, I lose 0.7-1 kg per week as it is predicted by the calculations. When I went from 1200 to 1600 - i was amazed. The extra 400 calories allowed me to eat more fruit, at 1200 - I didn't like spending my calories on fruit, I needed them for the denser food to feel full. It also allows me to put olive oil on my salads. I don't understand why anyone would not use the TDEE method. To me, it is common sense..Feel free to add me, my diary is open to my friends...

I get like 1900, but I usually only eat around 1600 or so. But I do admit that my food choices are really boring. chicken, green beans, asparagus, chicken, a small baked potato, subway turkey every once in awhile. Fruit. Protein Whey. I've really just tried to make food something I need to sustain, not something I enjoy - seems to help me from constantly wanting pizza!
