I'm 23 years old, I'm 5'3 and I weigh 159 lbs. My goal is to be at 145. What should my calorie intake be to achieve this goal?

If you go to your profile, then to change goals, select your weekly weightloss goal (i would try for 1lb a week) and activity level, mfp will calculate your estimated calorie intake goals. Try the recommended for a few weeks before adjusting anything else, because your body will need time to adapt. I highly recommend weighing and measuring every morsel and logging it. It can be suprising to see just how off an eyeball estimate is.
