How many calories to lose faster?

Hi! I just reached my two month mark on Tuesday, and so far I'm down 40 lbs, which is great, but I was wondering how many calories everyone was getting after 2 months. I know my dietician said I can't work out too much because I don't have enough calories going in now. I'm getting around 870 calories a day, and I know I will eventually be between 900-1100. How many is everyone else getting? What is the intensity of your workouts?

I workout about 5-6 days a week and usually get in around 900-1000 calories a day. After the workout the net calories are usually around 400-500. It's hard for me get in anymore. I've tried to eat a few higher calorie foods too. My weight loss and been pretty consistent up to this point. One thing I do for sure is get my Protein in daily. I usually average no less than 110 grams of protein a day.

What's the rush? You didn't gain overnight.

I work out 5 - 6 days a week. I eat between 700 - 900 calories a day and 80 - 100 gms of Protein. Every program is different. Follow your dietitian's instructions.
