Daily calorie intake

I am a 6 foot tall male weighing in at about 225, I want to loose between a pound or 2 a week. I'm currently eating around 1700 calories a day. Is there anyone similar to my size who is eating about the same as me ? And if so what have your results been like ?

Maintenance for your current weight (at sedentary) is about 2,662 calories. So 1,700 is a decent estimate. Eat more if you plan on exercise though.
