Multiply the weight by 10 for each except the maintenance. For maintenance multiply by 12-14. these li'l forumlas will get you in the ball park. Nothing is perfect so all we can do is get in the area and make adjustments accordingly.

It really depends on how many calories you burn. You need to eat less than you burn. Diet.com has tools to help you track both. I lost a lot of weight just by keeping track of both.

You don't need to drop calories hun thats really not good for you what you need to do is vary the amount of calories that you take in every day. Its far more affective than eating the same amount every day cuz then your body just expects it. Switch it up a bit eat a high protein diet and exercise about 3-5 times a week. You don't need a fancy gym or a special diet plan, just get out side and have fun with it. Bike, run, swim, play any sport that you enjoy! Even get friends and family involved if you want!! just have some fun! Good luck!!!!!

Always consume at least 1200 calories. A good range is 1300-1500 calories a day. Use exercise to help create a calorie deficit of around 500 calories a day. It takes a deficit of 3500 calories to lose one pound. Eat small, healthy meals every 2-4 hours, about 5-6 meals a day. Each of these meals should have some protein in them and be around 300 calories each. This will help to build your metabolism. Focus on eating fruits and veggies, whole grains, low fat dairy products, nut, and lean meats, chicken and fish. Drink plenty of water. Do strength training to increase your metabolism as well. More lean muscle helps to burn more calories throughout the day. Also do some cardio. I hope that helps. Good luck!

Weight loss is a tricky topic. Lots of people are unhappy with their present weight, but most aren't sure how to change it - and many would be better off staying where they are. You may want to look like the models or actors in magazines and on TV, but those goals might not be healthy or realistic for you. Besides, no magical diet or pill will make you look like someone else. So what should you do about weight control? Hope this can help u. :)
