    Your ticker says you have eight pounds to lose. 1200 would most likely be too little; 1400 may not even be enough depending on your height/weight. Set your goal to half a pound a week and go with that.

    You're an 18-year-old guy trying to lose 8 pounds and you're fussing about the difference between 1200 and 1400 calories? I call troll.
