Calories seem to be my worst enemy.

Ok guys I have a question. I am at 162lbs now. I am trying to lose 30-40 lbs. 30 is my goal and then I will assess and see if I need to lose more. I work out 5 days a week for 45 minutes of walking/jogging/running. Each 45 minutes on the treadmill burns 400-500 calories, depending on the intensity of the slope, etc. Right now, my goal is set up to lose 2 lbs a week which is making me intake 1200 calories. I've only been at this for two weeks (this is my second week), so I see no progress yet. Is it better for me if I move it to 1lb a week and why? I've read so many of your topics on this, but I figured I'd ask to clarify it better for myself.
