How do I figure out how many calories I should be eating? I know this site does it but I'm getting a VERY different number from my trainer (who is nutrition certified). Any ideas?

There are many of calculators on the web you can try. You should probably try a few and take an average. That will at least get you started. You can fine tune your cals once you have been following the numbers for a week or so. I use this one because of the flexibility it offers but there are many others. Good luck
