    Totally depends on your current weight, height, and activity level. For some women, just under 2000 calories a day would have you losing weight without additional exercise, and for others it would be maintenance or even gaining.

    Keep in mind you burn a lot of calories merely existing each day.

    What she said above. If you are a very petite woman, you need a lot of exercise to justify 2000 calories and don't want to gain weight. If you are larger, you might drop weight at that calorie level, with or without exercise.

    If you use the site to set goals, it will give you the number of calories to meet that goal. Use it as a starting point, adjust as or if needed, and move on from there.
