Food Focus question

Hi there, Ive registered on Food Focus as have 1 stone more to loose to reach my ideal weight, but I am not sure Im using it correctly, as its telling me I can only have 750 calories a day, to loose 2lbs a week ?? That seems ridiculously low to me and almost at starvation levels...am I doing something wrong or reading what its telling me incorrectly ?

Im 5ft 8 and currently weigh 11 stone and want to get down to 10 stone. Is anybody able to let me know what the correct calorie count should be ?

Many thanks.

it varies from person to person, but have you put a date that you want to be at target by? cos it sounds like it's trying to cram you to get there. Look at the date and if it's not something ridiculous like next month try putting in 1.5 or 1 lb a week.

I'm very similar to you although I'm only 5'6 and my count is 1300 to lose 1.5 lbs a week until july

Thanks Furball, I'll have a play with the system and see what happens.
