How many calories a day ?

robinsbridge

What should my daily calorie intake be?? I find it all very confusing, I am 49 years old, 5ft 4 inches and weigh 8st 8llbs, the site autodefaulted me to 3250 calories a day but I though that was a little high, have tried searching the web but everything gives conflicting information, any help or advice would be greatfully received

I would input your height and age all over again. That seems to high for calories. I am on 1200 calories a day.

So you weigh 120lbs. How much are do you want to loose? or do you just want to maintain?

It recommends to maintain your weight that you eat 1592.5calories if you have a light activity life. I posted the link if you would like to verify.
