Is My calorie goal correct?

I've been doing this for about 5 weeks now and lost about 10 pounds. this last week though I stayed the same as my last weigh-in. I haven't done any eating over my goal except for maybe a couple hundred calories on my cheat day. I even worked out twice this week! I feel like maybe my calorie count is wrong: I looked on another site that said I should have about 1500something to loose weght, while MFP tells me its 1210. I feel that might be wrong. I understand it's "total calories" not just food, But I don't workout everyday. Help? I just want to know what I should do. I want results. I just don't know what's right since everyone tells me different.
