The first answer – well the first two answers but the first one gives more detail – have it right. BUT, the amounts they give are the minimum amount that should be consumed.
Lying in bed, doing absolutely nothing – not moving a muscle – all day long requires 1200 calories.
And weight is also a consideration; if you weigh – say – 230lbs, you will lose weight well on a diet of 2000 calories a day.
If you eat significantly less than your body requires, you’re not giving your body fuel to burn; what it will be burning is lean muscle, and it will be storing fat.
So very low calorie diets will result in excess fat in the long run – not just theory, believe me I know.

Well, just and FYI, it takes 1400 calories a day for just your organs to function for the average person. But if you have a lot to burn off then you may one to eat less. Depending on your size and height, I would google the daily recommended caloric intake.
Celery is a very good one! It has many nurtrients and it’s only 18 calories for 2 long stalks and that alone will fill you up!

The number of calories that you should eat depends of your weight, age, height, your activity levels and whether you are trying to lose, maintain or gain weight.
You need balance the calories that you take each day in the diet with the calories that you expend each day.
This calculator estimates the number of calories you should consume each day to maintain, increase, or decrease your weight based upon your gender, height, weight, age, and activity level. This calculator also provides a breakdown of calories and grams required from carbohydrates, fats, and proteins.sooo……
For a person who practices 30 minutes or less of moderate physical activity, the number of calories that they should eat
Children——–2-3 years old 1000 calories
Children——–4-8 years old 1200-1400 calories
Girls————-9-13 years old 1600 calories
Boys————9-13 years old 1800 calories
Girls————14-18 years old 1800 calories
Boys———–14-18 years old 2200 calories

Females——-31-50 years old 1800 calories
Males———-31-50 years old 2200 calories
Females——-51+ years old 1600 calories

2000 calories is too much or too little depending on the person.
A rough estimate is your current weight times 10 first
.I am 132# 1320 calories to maintain my weight for lying in bed all day. Add 10% (132) for digesting and eating food
S0 1452, next times your activity level
0.2 for sedentary
0.3 for moderately active (1452 x 0.3=435.6+1452=1887.6 calories per day to maintain my weight)
So 2000 would be too much.
You need to plug the numbers to find your needs. To lose weight remove no more than 500 calories per day (unless your caloric needs exceed 3000 calories per day) from what is needed to MAINTAIN your weight. With that you should lose roughly 1 lb per week (3500 calories = 1 # of fat)
0.5 for highly active.
Your intake should not be any lower than 1200 calories per day of highly varied foods, that contains
fruit, rainbow of fruits
veggies brighter=more vitamins
lean meats (or meat alternatives) skinless chicken pork loin, round ste, tofu, soybeans, legumes
a healthy balance of fats, canola oil, flaxseed oil, non-hydrogenated margarine or a small amount of butter,
whole grains
lowfat dairy lowfat yogurt and cottage cheese (also a meat alternative) lowfat cheese
and low in sugar. limit sodas, ban the sugar bowl.There is no dietary recommendation for sugar-
whole grains-wheat bread (3 grams of fiber per svg) brown rice, whole wheat tortillas
There is actually a more complex formula that uses your height, gender and age. But this formula is adequate enough and if you are looking the best way to lose weight, i suggest doing what this mom did
