1200 calories will work?
BMR is 1420, and tdee is around 1650-1750 will this be good to lose weight?

haven't lost any weight
I've been creating a 250+ cal deficit every day from my TDEE and haven't lost an ounce. What is this about, I've been doing it now for 2 weeks

Why does MFP change calorie # after exercise?
Can someone explain eating exercise calories back and what the point is?

How does exercise play into BMR and TDEE
If my BMR is 1420 and my TDEE is 1700, then I can only create a 280 calorie deficit each day. What if I eat 1420 calories throughout the day, but say I then exercise and burn 200 calories. Does this mean I have to eat another 200 calories to meet my BMR?? New to all of this, just trying to figure this out :)

MFP tells me to have 1200 cals/day
but my BMR is 1420...thought I wasn't supposed to go below BMR?

Is it possible for me to create a 500 calorie deficit?
If my BMR is 1420 and my TDEE is 1700, then technically I can only safely create a 280 calorie deficit, right?

How does nutritional info (fat, sugar, etc) play into diet?
If losing weight comes down to creating a calorie deficit, then how do things like fat and sugar content affect it? If my BMR is 1400, then what's the difference if I just ate cookies and ice cream that added up to 1400 calories as opposed to eating healthy?

Explain BMR, etc; how much should I eat?
I weigh 123lbs, and I want to be around 110-115. So to lose 1lb a week, I need a 500 calorie deficit every day. But should I be subtracting that 500 from my BMR, which is 1420, or my TDEE, which 1700? Also, is it still safe to create a 500 calorie deficit from the TDEE because then I would be eating below my BMR?
