Rounded off, your maintenance is about 2,000 calories per day. That's how much you would eat to maintain your weight. Eat slightly less than that. You want to lose about 2-3 lbs. a week.
Personally, I never count calories, but there's the answer from the equation, if you want it. If I were you, I would just eat reasonably with the criteria I gave before. If results didn't come, I'd then incrementally decrease the amount until they did. If you're weighing yourself, make sure you do it consistently. You'll get inaccurate readings if you choose to do it at different times a day. Only do that once a week. |
