Dieting with a low maintenance calorie requirement?

I paid to have my RMR tested (resting metabolic rate) last year. It was revealed that mine was just over 1500 calories, even though I had been working out a lot over that summer. I then gained 30-40 pounds over this year because I was just studying and working (not gym-ing).

Now I obviously want to lose this 30-40 pounds.

If my RMR is still 1500, how am I supposed to lose 1 pound per week? That would require that I eat only 1000 calories per day...

My RMR might be higher now that I'm heavier but I'm also less active than I was back then. I don't want to rely on this idea because if higher, I feel it wouldn't be by much.
