I want to loose weight I do zumba daily 20/40 minutes and walk as well as we have a little mini farm so constantly busy My goals is only to lose a pound a week. MFP suggests I eat 1600 calories a day. If I work out I am allotted more calories, but I try to avoid eating my workout calories. Sometimes I have to because I'm famished. If your nurse is saying that 1500 calories or 1200 calories is too much then you must be 4 feet tall. Either that or your nurse does not know squat about nutrition.
