    I'm at 1200 because I'm just under 5' tall. I've lost 13lbs since February 1 :)

    2700-3000 to maintain depending on the time of year...around 2300-2500 while cutting weight.

    I am always confused as to whether i eat too little or too much! I work out 7 days a week, boot camps, lifting, boxing, spinning (sometimes 2x a day) and am alwaysss hungry. Sometimes eating 2000+ calories

    When I did this before and was successful, I found that I absolutely could not set a goal lower than 1500 calories, because I physically couldn't eat so little. But 1600 - 1700 has been successful for me, and when I was exercising regularly I was probably eating closer to 2000 and losing weight thanks to the calorie burn.

    I've started over (four years and two kids later) and I am setting my initial goal at 1620, to lose one pound per week.

    I'm currently set at 2637/day. That includes my 5 days/wk 90 min workouts which are then added up, divided by 7 days a week and added onto my maintenance calories without exercise which is around 1900. I seem to stay at a stable weight around 2600/day as long as I don't slack on the exercise.

    Usually 1500 to 1600. I've been much more successful at this range than at a lower range.

    I have MFP set at losing 0.5 lbs per week and it's set to about 1550 calories. My calorie intake differs per day. Yesterday was rest day and I have a desk job so I barely got just under 1300. Days I go to the gym may be up to 1800 calories. I refuse to go hungry lol
