Hi I'm here looking to see if this weight loss plan of mine is safe.

I calculated that just by being alive I burn around 2,608 calories, so I should eat 2,108 calories to lose a pound a week.

I decided to make things faster eat 1,500 - 2,000 so that I add a few hundred to the calories being burned. In addition I run on a treadmill and usually burn 300 or 600 calories.

So what I'm trying to make sure, if I ate 1,600 calories one day and burned 600 calories. Is it just like eating only 1,000 calories? Is this unhealthy?

Also, if it is unhealthy, what do you recommend I do? Should I eat more to compensate for the 600 calories being burnt?

You should look at it in terms of what you eat - exercise = only eating that many calories.
Just look at calories in vs calories out.
So yup, add your basic living calories burnt + exercise = calories out
then add your calories in (anything you consume) and you get your deficit or surplus!
I'm not sure what a normal deficit to have when losing weight is. Try browsing the
stickies for this info!
It's great that you want to speed up the process but if you cut back too fast on your
intake you could end up feeling very hungry and then overeating.
What you could do is try just eating when hungry and measure how many cals that
totals and then go from there.
If you find that you eat about 2000 then you know that cutting back to 1600 may be a
bit much.

Thank you for replying.

Hope this works out

Ideally here's what you should use:

Current weight * 15 = number of calories to maintain your current weight.

Take that number and multiply it by 70% to get a safe and effective number of calories for weight loss.
