One thing I learned on this forum, it is better to lose weight eating the most you can so you don't mess up your metabolism. If you eat too little you will put yourself in starvation mode, and be more susceptible to binging.
I did weight watchers for a long time eating around 1200 - 1500 calories a day and I lost about 50 pounds. I couldn't maintain eating that way and I gained back 10 - 15 pounds. This time I am trying to lose it on 1800 - 2000 calories per day. It is slower, but I think, more sustainable.
