Hello. Are you using a method such as FitDay.com to track your calories and exercise? I initially looked at a couple different calorie calculators to give me an idea of what number to aim for, but different calculators told me different things, so I can understand your confusion. Are you looking at the calulator on this site? Some people think the 3FC calorie calculator gives you a high number, but you could start by selecting "Moderate Activity." My first few weeks of tracking calories on FitDay confirmed that the daily amount I was aiming for was both comfortable in terms of satisfying my hunger and producing a slow weight loss. As you track your calories, you will soon come up with a daily calorie goal that works for you ... because if you find that you are hungry or tired or not losing weight, you can tweak your goal until it is right.
