Excellent! I'm glad to have you here! 1600 calories is not *quite* enough for you really, I think that you should probably be eating more like 1750ish for your overall calories. At that calorie level, you should be able to maintain your weight unless your height is very far from normal.

I'm shooting for only eating 1600 cals after I am done loosing weight. I think once I only weigh 120 or so, 1600 will be okay. Right now, I am just shooting for 2000 cal a day, even though most weight loss things will say 1200 cals/ day.

Check your BMR, 1600 calories a day might be ok if you're never exercising again, but even then I think that it wouldn't be quite enough.

http://www.tlbc.ca/blog/index.php/bmr-calculator/

BMR is Basal Metabolic Rate, it describes the calories you'll probably be burning at your weight. For example, for me:

I'm 22, 5'6'' and want to weigh 140 lbs, at 140 lbs, I'll be eating 2022 calories a day with light exercise (1-3 days per week) and at that calorie level I will never gain weight.

If I want to maintain my weight of 181 lbs, I would eat 2261 calories per day and never gain weight again, but because I want to lose weight, I'm aiming for 1750ish calories per day which will skeeve off 1 lb per week every week. However I'm actually going to eat more like 1850 probably depending on how much exercise I'm getting.

I know, 150-200 calories doesn't seem like much but it can be fairly substantial.

Give Fat2Fit Radio a listen, they've got great info on losing weight consistently and forever.
