I'm a Weight Watchers member, actually so I count Points. It's similar to calories, but not exactly the same of course. (Plus the fact that there are meetings/centers, etc.)
When I "translate" my full day into calories (which I sometimes do to keep track of my fat/protein/carbs percentages), I end up at about 1,800 - 2,000 calories a day currently. Each day wavers, on average, between there.
If you're curious about Calorie Counting, there's a section
linked here that might help you start.
I tend to like the site MyFitnessPal.com for counting calories, but there are a TON of sites, so you just have to find the one you like.
Keep in mind that losing weight/inches can take some time, and trial and error.
PS - You might like the 300+ Club, the 100lb Club, the 30-something's section just to start. Plus, of course all the other supportive areas around the boards
If you have questions, just ask! People are generally helpful around here and we love to see people succeed.
