Calories - not losing

[slimmy120 2]

One of the other lovely members told me she is on 800 - 1300 calories per day plus does 1 and half hour daily work out. I am 73 kilos lost 25 so far. How many calories are you others on too lose weight? want to know what i should be on my doctor says dont worry re calories, just stop eating when full, but i want to keep losing weight.:wub:

There's no set number of calories (e.g. 1000) that's the magic number for everyone here. I'm almost 6' tall and moderatly active. My calorie needs are probably going to be very different from yours, so what I eat has nothing to do with what you should eat.

Find your BMR. There are range charts you can find online. If possible, determine your AMR. Then go for something between the two. My BMR is about 1877. When I pay attention to calories (not usually), I try to hit around 50% of my BMR, so roughly 930 calories.

Half the BMR, or a threshold between your BMR and AMR (if you can determine it) is generally a good guideline for weightloss.

I'm 5'6" (1.68m) and my doc has my targeting 1000-1200 cal per day plus 30 min of exercise at least 3x a week.

Reality is sometimes I'm below 1000, although if I'm lower than 900 I try to eat a snack before bed.
