How often you workout - I take an hour long kickboxing class 3x a week, and an hour long zumba class 2x a week, and strength training 1-2x a week depending on my schedule.
2k cals a day 30% Protein 30% Fat for macros.
You can cut as low as 1800 so start with that for 2 weeks then bump it up if your productivity increases!0 -

A week isn't long enough for your body to adjust, it needs to be a month at least.0 -
I'm in the same situation as you, I was on about 800 calories a day and I did lose weight but this unbearable hunger was annoying. After reading about success stories here, I decided to up my calories to 1200 and I'm still losing weight as well as feeling full. I don't always hit 1200 though, I think the food I eat generally it'd mean me constantly snacking to make up numbers.
I really couldn't imagine eating 1800!0 -
OK! Point taken... will try a month:)0

So when you set the calories higher do you eat your exercise calories back?
What if you don't exercise eat the same amount of calories?0
