Not sure what to tell you. Read the hussman website, and have been eating around 2000 cal a day. I think his little calculator had me eating between 1561 and 2107 or something like that.

Even at 2000 cal/day, I am a ravenous beast. I stuck with it all week until saturday night, and have just now finished my feeing frenzy. Barely managed to maintain a 3500 cal deficit for the week.

I read somewhere else that RMR x 1.55 is about the norm for active folks. Thing is, seems like BFL is beyond what I would call active, but I'm still looking for other sources as to define what active is.

I'm just gonna reeval my caloric intake every 4 weeks and tweak it from there. If I have to eat more and maintain a lesser calorie deficit to keep from being so hungry all the time, I will do so.

Not sure if i helped you or not, I ramble at night=) Good luck!
