    No. Mine started at about 1500, at one pound a week. Now is at about 1420 at the same setting.

    no. its based off your activity level and how much you say you wanna lose/wk.

    It depends on your activity level without exercise and on how much you say you want to lose per week. Mine is currently 1200 per day. It really isn't too bad and isn't as hard to stay with as I thought it would be.
