    I've only started two months ago and watching my calories is really just a natural part of me now.

    You've made a big step in just downloading and looking for support!

    Use this calculator and subtract 20% from the maintenance calories to arrive at your daily caloric intake. Monitor your weight and after two weeks if you're not losing weight subtract 100 calories a day . You Want to shoot for half a pound to 2 pounds a week weight loss maximum. Anything more than that is unsustainable and means that you're starving yourself. Add 100 calories a day so that you stay within that range on a average weekly basis.
