How many calories do i need?

Question

How many calories do i need?

Answer 1

Give us more details about you such as your height, s*x, weight and whether you are trying to gain, maintain or lose weight.

Answer 2

it depends on your weight and age and wheather your a female or male. look it up online and you can find out, or ask your doctor.

Answer 3

It depends on what your lifestyle is.  I mean if you sit around the house and play video games all day you probably only need 1500.  

But if you are always moving around and work out or exercise regularly you might consider consuming around 3000.

it also depends on your metabolism and genetics.  it varies from person to person.

basically, if you are getting fat, you are eating more calories than your body needs, and if you are losing weight or getting skinny, you are eating less calories than your body needs.

Answer 13

If you want to stay the weight you are and you live a moderately active lifestyle, multiply 10 by your current weight and eat that many calories.

150lbs x 10 = 1500 calories a day.

Answer 14

It depends on many factors...but, generally if you want to maintain your current weight and are an active female, multiply 15 by your weight and you'll have the calories you need. Males need more calories generally. Less active people need fewer to maintain their current weight. To lose 1 lb a week or gain it, add or subtract 500 calories a day.
