It's all about balance. Fad diets don't work. If you look at every diet out there what you see is advise on changing your current eating habits, they are not working for you...every one of them also tells you to exercise. It is the change of eating habits and the increase in exercise that works, not the particular foods they tout.

The U.S. government has a chart that is useful for caloric needs and it is below this answer.

If you are a sedentary (none active) person, go for walks or swim regularly, try to double your normal daily exercise and cut out the junk food. Reduce portion sizes but not to the point you starve yourself. Balance. that's the key to loosing wieght.
