Does anybody have the formula for figuring out how many calories you need to stay at the weight you are at?

The one I have is as follows for women:

655+
(4.35 x weight) +
(4.7 x height) -
(4.7 x age) =

Or does any body have a different one? Anyone know a good website?

    Couldn't you use the BMR on here to find out your maintenance calories and then just plug that info into your food diary
