Haven't seen much action here in a bit, so....

Here's a question.  We all read about the negative effects of dieting.  But
in order for someone to lose weight, a person has to have a calorie
deficit.  For example, a person consuming say, 2000 calories a day could
cut their intake to 1500 and lose weight; or boost their calories burned to
2500 and lose weight.  The first is called "a diet", while the second is
viewed as healthy.

But what is the minimum level of activity needed for a person to lose
weight in a healthy way?  Or put differently, what is is the minimum
calorie intake needed for health, that one must exceed in order to lose
weight?
(based on bodyweight, of course)
