Calorie Tapering

Hi All

First thread I have written. I was after some advice. A member of my family is doing Weight Watchers. That way of doing things has never helped me with weight loss, however they told me that after they hit a goal weight, the amount of points they are allowed to consume goes down. Now to us that means a calorie reduction.

I'm wondering is that something that I should do after a while. Start Tapering down the amount of calories I consume. I'm at present told to maintain my weight I must consume 2500 per day, while to lose weight, consume 2250. Should I now be trying to eat say 2000 calories per day?

Any insight would be great thanks.
