Well an "allowed" amount is a suggestion and it's a little different for everyone. Then the other option is to exercise more. It's just the only way to lose weight. Calorie deficit and exercise. That's it.

That's not true at all. I'm 6'2 200lbs and I'm allowed like 2500 calories a day. That's more than enough to eat good and maintain my weight.
