Try a website like livestrong.com which will allow you to put in your goal weight and will ask how many pounds a week you want to lose. That will give you your daily calorie count. This website is great because, on the "daily plate", you can write down EVERYTHING you eat and it will calculate all the details for you. QUITE an eye-opener!
