Re: Hey everybody.

According to the website I used to look up your stats (Calorie-count dot com), you burn 2100 per day at your age, weight and activity level .... so you would want to reduce that by 500 per day (down to 1600) for a 1 pound per week loss ... which is a respectable, healthy rate of loss. You could speed things up a bit by eating 1600 calories and exercising another 200-300 calories a day .... which would give you a higher calorie deficit.

So your 1700 is definitely in the ballpark, but my recommendation would be 1600 ... but you need to do what works for you. (I am on 1500 calories per day and do just fine!)
