Checking calorie target will work

I am trying to get sorted (agan).  I have calculated my BMR as 1445 - pic attached with details. I want to lose 9kg/20 pounds.  I want to do the 'kinda hard' to lose 750g / 1.5 pounds a week - though I track calories consumed/remaining in MFP.  I have set my exercise level at the lowest as I figure that on days where I do very little, that will be about right.  ON days where I do more, I know I can eat some of those calories back.  When I put all the above details into MFP, it gives a calorie target of 1200 which is way too low and below my BMR.  I am thinking a goal of 1500 is about right, plus the exercise calories when they happen.  Is this too low given that most days I do move around a bit (I'm a teacher so not sitting all day)?

Hi @Telly2 — I’ve moved your post to the “third party integrations” area since it has to do with My Fitness Pal.  Should get a better response here.
