Would like to see how other people are eating on 1600 calories, please let me know if you have an open diary or I can add you as friend? Also, what is your weight, height, and activity level like? Thanks.

    Sounds low if you're active?

    I was going to make the same comment - I’m 5’5, 42, and maintain on more than 1600 even if I’m bedridden - when active (11-12k steps a day) I maintain on about 2050?

    how much do you maintain if you are sedentary? i am 5’5 i do at least 10k steps and its impossible for me to lose weight on more than 1600.

    I suppose I should have been more explicit, set to sedentary but add exercise 3-400 exercise cals most days.
