How many calories should I be eating?

I'm currently 108 lbs and 5 foot 5. I'm not looking to lose weight, but more so gain muscle to develop a six pack. I burn about 600 calories a day. How much should I be netting?

Bear in mind these figures are only a guideline and no calculator is 100% accurate.

I've worked out with a sedentary setting you should eat around 1609 to maintain your weight. Add on the 600 you say you burn makes your TDEE around 2209.

You say you want to gain muscle, so you need to eat at a small surplus, say an extra 200 cals a day, and do a heavy lifting program. So aim for around 2400 cals a day, and evaluate after at least 6 weeks.
