Onesnap 書きました: » I just looked it up for you and it says your healthy weight is 143 lbs. 127 is the minimum for your height and age.
cookiealbright 書きました: » 1,430.

Wheelhouse15 書きました: » Go to IIFYM.com or Scooby's Workshop and use their TDEE calculator. Just input your activity level etc and it will give you a good idea. Also, MFP allows you to input that information to give you an idea based on what you want to do -- lose, gain, or maintain -- but it's not considered as accurate. Once you get that number then you have to actually adjust your number based on personal observations since it's only an estimate. If you are trying to lose and you can't then you'll have to adjust your calories downward and if you are trying to gain then you'll have to adjust up.
AliceDark 書きました: » OP, go to this site: http://scoobysworkshop.com/calorie-calculator/. Depending on your activity level, you'd expect to start a healthy rate of gain somewhere between 1800 and 2300 calories per day, maybe more.

I burn between 300/400 through exercise so would I need to be eating this back? Would 2000 be enough to gain then?

AliceDark 書きました: » The Scooby's site uses a method of calculating your target that factors in your weekly average exercise, so you wouldn't eat back your calories if you use it to find your target. If you want to use the eat-back method, change your MFP settings to gain 0.5 pounds per week and do what it tells you to do. I don't have enough information to tell you whether 2000 calories are enough to gain; I gave you a ballpark based on what Scooby's said when I plugged in some of your information.
