I eat between 1200 and 1800, but for me it is more important how may I burn. I have a body bug so calories in and calories out is easy to tell. Somdays I am more active than others I just want a deficte daily. I am down 20 lbs but it is VERY slow.
I am in my 40's and based on my clcle depends on my eating and how much I lose. I am in the 160's (daily change up and down, but trending down) and 5'3"
I was aiming for 1600 a day but realistically it's more like between 1600-1700. I currently weigh 192 and have lost 53 pounds but it has taken me 10 months to do so. I lose about 5 pounds a month, or 1.25 pounds/week.
I am 24 year old male maintainer. I'm 5'10 130-135 pounds and I eat between 1600-1900 calories a day. I also do 30 minutes of hard cardio 4 times a week.
I weigh 175 and eat around 1300-1400 calories a day. I am in my 50s and have an aversion to exercise. I have averaged about a pound a week--sometimes more, sometimes less.
I'm aiming at 1880 and weigh 225. I'm in my second week, so I'm still not sure how my body is going to react. I may lower my caloric intake, but I'm trying to do it slowly so that I can make a life-change, or I may keep it the same and lose slowly. Who knows?! I'm just taking it one day at a time right now.
