I'm trying to lose weight. Right now I weigh about 230-235. I'm 22 and about 5 feet 4 inches tall. I was wondering what the best calorie intake I should try is? I'm just getting back into exercising and eating right... any ideas would be helpful!

Thanks!

    There are a lot of calculators for BMR and TDEE - You should be eating between those two numbers in calories. Google "BMR" and "TDEE", the calculators come right up.
