Are you trying to lose weight? Calculate your base metabolic rate, then use something like My Fitness Pal. Enter food and workouts, and keep it at a 500 calorie deficit. Fat will shred off. Of course, keeping it at -500 calories is much easier said than done, as we all know. For me, I had to use My Fitness Pal for several months before I was really comfortable knowing how much to eat to lose or gain weight (in my case I want more muscle).
Not trying to lose weight. 2000-2200 calories is a maintain weight, gain muscle meal plan for me. I downloaded the My Fitness Pal app (I think you suggested it last time), but I have not been able to use it yet. Kind of overwhelmed right now - see my thread for details. Be warned, it is bummer right now. enter at your own risk.
