Take your current weight, add a zero to the end of your weight, then deduct 500. The result is the maximum number of calories you should consume per day in order to lose 1 pound per week. (There are 3,500 calories per pound. 3,500/7=500) for example: you weigh 180 pounds. You add a zero to make 1800. Deduct 500, this means your maximum daily caloric intake is 1300. Your minimum daily caloric intake should never go below 1200 per day.
