Mine came out to 1600. I do work out, and oddly enough, I gravitate to eating about 1500-1600 calories. But I don't lose weight! Haven't for months and months. I do, however, gain if I go over 2000 or so calories per day.
Since people's base metabolic rate can be anywhere from 1000 calories to 7000 calories per day, it's hard to generalize. Getting your BMR tested (and no, I don't know how--probably rare to find docs who know how to do it and have the equipment) would be the only way to really know.
And of course the whole calorie in = calorie out theory is VERY suspect. Obesity is far more complicated than that. (once again, I encourage everyone to read Adiposity 101 for more info).
I always enjoy math games, tho, Atrsy!
