How many calories can I eat to lose weight?
I am at the current weight of 250 pounds and need to lose some weight in a months period. I guess I need to know how many calories can I have a day to maintain my weight, so I can plan how many calories I should eat a day to drop quite a few pounds in a months time. I appreciate any answers, thanks.

Girls should do between 1200-1600 calories/day and guys 2000. Just make sure that what you’re eating is good quality food (veggies/fruit/lean protein).

One way is to calculate your BMR – just do a googe search for a BMR calculator – plug in the info and you got your answer on how many calories to maintain your weight. Now minus 15 to 20% of that and that is what you should take in to lose weight. Don’t ever drop your calories less than 30% because you’ll end up burning your muscle and not your fat.

different people need different calories.girls need 1600-2000, and guys need at least 2000.
