Hey guys, second post for the night.
Hypothetically speaking what is the normal amount of calories a 17 year old boy would be required to intake to maintain his weight?

Change your Goal to maintain, MFP will tell you at your weight and gender the amount needed. What you failed to mention in your post was your weight, as weight makes the calories differ greatly, age has very little impact compared to weight. I weigh about 140 and my maintenance calories are 1950.0
