I'm not a specialist but i would say around 2,500 calories a day. And your best bet is to eat 6 small meals and not 3 regular meals. Say you go to sleep around 9 pm, don't eat for about 2 hours before then but if you have an off schedule or something and you exercize, you can workout after you eat and then go to sleep. And always drink about 2 liters of water a day and the best thing to do is to drink a glass of water right before you eat; You will not be as hungry meaning not as much food A diet will work but you need to exercize about 30 mins a day and mix it up every day. But make sure to run, jog or walk.

You should not eat anything........
It takes 3500 calories to lose a pound
It depends partially on your BMI, however, a rough estimation (assuming you mean 'How many calories a day should a 118 pound woman eat per day to lose weight) would be about 1200 calories a day, assuming no exercise is taking place.

Any significant decrease in calories will lead to weight lost. If this 5' 2" woman eats say 2000-2500 hundred calories a day, then yes she will lose weight. Exercise is also a good way to help lose weight and make your body firm and toned.
It depends on many other factors, so the end weight is really unknown. The woman must be exercising to lose weight, because you need to burn calories to lose weight. Also, it depends on the foods. Eating a healthy diet of 600 calories will result in mroe weight loss than 600 calories a day of chips and cookies and ice cream. 600 calories, however, is not a safe amount to eat per day. A person on a diet should eat between 1,000 and 1,200 calories a day to be safe and to still lose weight.
1500 calories
