    Currently MFP is set to 1400 a day (losing 1lb per week), but today is my first day and I was completely satisfied with 1200. We'll see if that continues when I get back to the gym!

    I was averaging about 1,000 a day but watched a youtube video and found out wow I am not eating enough and the girl had a link to her maco calculator and now I am eating 1355 calories a day and feel so so much better!!

    MFP is set for 2,700 a day (gain 1-2 pounds a week),which includes my job of being on my feet all day. However, I am a runner so the intake is above 3,000. Struggling to reach that many calories right now, but I'm getting closer

    I started at 1760 and that worked well for the first 75 pounds, now I am at 1500 with a total weight loss of 93 pounds. I don't get hungry because I choose bulky low calorie vegetables often. With a bad back I can't run but I started walking slow pace in the beginning, and now I can often do as much as seven miles in a day at about an 18 minute mile pace.

    I set my goal at 1700 but usually eat closer to 1900 on average. I'm not losing. This is maintenance. In fact I might be gaining. I should check. (I'm really not a great example of success).

    I'm 6'1 183lbs. I'm 21 years old. I'm pretty active so I eat around 2800 to maintain.

    I am vegan so I have to make sure I get enough protein usually 1000 to 1200 but I am recuperating with knee injury so very limited activity and I am under doctors care and get regular labs - I have lost 10# in a month

    Youre probably not eating enough. Youre burning off a lot of calories probably WAY more than youre taking in. Get some more protein in.

    1500-1700 calories with 3 workouts a week and have lost 16 pounds in 2 months. Im a bigger guy though so it wouldn't apply to you. I would just do 500-700 less calories than your BMR. guaranteed weight loss.
