I am 5'6 and 165 pounds and approximately 11-12 percent body fat. I track my calories and macros and am currently eating 1800 calories to cut. I lift 5-6 days a week and go on a three mile walk twice a week. My job is very sedentary so I don't move much at work. Is it normal to have to eat so little calories for someone my size? I'm at a sticking point and I can't imagine eating only 1600 calories per day. Maybe that's just what I have to do? Or is my metabolism really slow?
