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!)

Yep, I got something similar, about 2150 calories a day for her....
About 1650ish calories a day for 1lb a week of weight loss, 1400ish calories a day for 1.5lbs a week, and 1150 calories a day for 2lbs of weight loss a week.
