You can buy really good calorie counter books which list basically every type of fresh and processed food you can buy and state the amount of calories and fat in the food.\nWrite down what you eat. Use the book to calculate calories. Add the total calories eaten per day and hey presto you have calculated your daily calories. You can then amend your diet to contain as many calories as you desire.\nGood luck.

I think 1800 per day is a good place to start you can cut it back when you see you are not losing.  I use Caloriecounter.com to help me keep up with the calories I eat. I also use different websites to find recipes for almost any thing low cal.

I would take it ten pounds at a time. You should be getting 30 minutes of exersize a day, eating 1,200 calories a day. You will probably lose about 5-7 pounds the first week and about 2 pounds a week after that. You can lose about 10 pounds in 5 weeks. Don't set a crazy goal for yourself because you will just get overwhelmed Take it ten pounds at a time until you get to a weight where you feel good about yourself. It takes didication but you can do it. Stay away from sweets, soda, junk food, and food high in fat. Always look at the back on the Nutrition Labels to see how much calories whatever you are eating is. Write everything you eat down in a journal and what you did for exersize.  Take a picture of yourself now, and take a picture of yourself everytime you lose ten pounds. If you go out to eat, ask the waitor to find out how much calories and fat is in the meal you want. Oh yeah, and on nutrition labels, make sure you read the serving size. For example, if a box of crackers says 50 calories per serving and there are ten servings don't eat the whole box because it will be wayy more than 50 calories.

If you don't want to lose weight but are exercising, then you must take in more calories.  Eat appropriately.  Consult a physical trainer or your doctor to help you determine how many calories you should be taking in.

Take a walk first and while walking drink water.  You can burn off more calorie that way and you won't be as hungry.

If you email me, I will gladly give you a diet based on Jenny Craig and Nutrisystem. You can do it yourself at home. You won't need to measure anything or count calories. It is all already proportioned. It involves all food groups and is based on 1250 calories. Very healthy.  I have shared it with many askers on yahoo answers.

3500 calories equals about 1 lb.\n\nSo you'll need to consume 3500 more calories on a weekly basis.

The number of calories *is* the total number of calories.  Calories only come from protein, fat, or carbs.  So listing the "calories from fat" is just telling you the fat calories.  If you add up the number of calories from protein, fat, and carbs, you should get the total number of calories- the number on the label after "calories."\n\nPcal + Fcal + Ccal = Total Calories.\n\nSo yes, that first calorie reading is what is contributing to your total calorie intake.  The rest just tell you what the calories consist of.

immediately cut your calorie intake to no more than 1500 calories per day. eat 3 meals per day each no more than 300 calories per meal and eat 3 snacks per day in between those meals not to exceed 180 calories per snack.  A good way to monitor calorie intake is to pick a food and only eat the serving size of the food.  For example cereal might have 280 calories in it but that is 280 calories in the serving size of 3/4 of a cup so you can eat 3/4 of a cup of cereal.  Dont forget the milk you add alos has calories.  Watch your drinks too, pop and juices have lots of calories. Things high in sugar are loaded with calories.  And one last thing, no eating after 7:30 at night. I used this diet to join the USMC. I lost 20 pounds in about 5-6 weeks.  I also lost another 10 in a week but that was some unhealthy way where I passed out and I am not going to go into further detail about that.  Losing weight quickly is dangerous and the faster you lose it the easier it is to gain it back.  Be wary of diet pills they dont do anything.
