You could try here

Without looking, I think fitday lets you pick a goal and then just tells you if it's going to be too much of a calorie cut.

About 3500 calories for 1lb of fat.
So you must have a deficit of 7000 calories per week.

That comes to approx 1000 calories per day.

If you go to livestrong.com/thedailyplate, the first page that comes up calculates your calories and gives an option for how much you want to lose per week. You may even want to start on the high end and see how you do. If you're not losing, up the exercise and cut back a little more on the calories.
