Calorie Counting × Meal Planning

1800 is your approx BMR (~12 cal/lb),

You are already at ~3500-4200 cal deficit a week. Recommended typical safe is ~7000 (2 lbs).

If you are doing any kind of exercise you will get close to that, but at 150 lbs, im not sure you need that much loss.

Stay safe my friend

I started at 170, and I'm 5'8 and mid-20s. Down to low 150s now, will probably stop around 130-140 which is closer to the bottom of the healthy range, and then go up to 17-800 calorie range.
