    5'4" , 33 years old. Attempting to lose around 70-75 lbs. My "goal" is 1200 calories, but I rarely eat that much. Usually hover around 1000 or so. I don't log exercise or even count them as "extra calories" to eat. Losing around 10 lbs/month.

    Calories: Set at lightly active with 1 lb a week goal, 1550 allowance. I eat anywhere from 1200-1550, depending on hunger. I've never eaten back exercise calories (calculated with Fitbit). I do treadmill daily and lifting every other day. The most I've lost in a week is 3.6 lbs, the least I've lost is 0. I typically lose 1 and a couple ounces a week.
