i hope you don't mean 190 calories! haha. if i'm hungry late at night i usually have a hot drink like tea with a tiny bit of skim milk and equal or hot chocolate jarrah that only has 45 calories in a cup and it's pretty yummy, fills my stomach up.

you had more than 190 cals yesterday am assuming?

@amberjetred <br>hi yep i hsd 390 yesterday i think :) <br>xx

@pink_bubble_yum don't starve yourself babe!

190 is soooo not healthy. You should be eating alot more than that. If you don't eat enough then your metabolism will mess up and you'll actually end up storing fat and gaining weight!! I'd say lowest you wanna go is 1000 cals. <br><br>I'm same goal weight =o)

i try to keep under 200 cals a day with plenty of vitamins and foods high in carbs. i am trying to lose 10 lbs

@bubbles6336 I've asked the same question and it depends on how much you weigh, how tall you are and how active you are and therefore how much you burn each day. Cos ultimately, to lose weight you need to burn more than you take in. End of! Go to google and type in 'how much i burn in a day' and then it will work it out for you. Some sites also recommend calorie intake per day for weight loss. I burn around 1800 per day so I'm going to start at 1400 and then take it lower. I'm pretty short which is why its so little. xx

Hi, there are quite a few sites out there that will tell you how many calories you should have a day to maintain, lose, put on, etc. Someone in this forum suggested nutrition.about.com and it is quite good, but quite scary also! Quite surprising how few you need just to maintain!! Hope this helps.

I try to have around 1200 a day plus very light exercise (walking with the dog for 30 mins-1 hour). At weekends I relax a bit more and eat about 2000 which isn't really dieting but it helps me to not feel like I'm denying myself too much! It seems to be working. Just don't eat too little and you'll be fine.

I am 26 years old, I live in Brazil. My current weight: 224.8 pounds (16 stones/ 102 kilograms), Body Mass Index (BMI): 38,9 Obesity II. <br>My goal: lose 52.9 pounds (3,7 stones/ 24 kilograms) for now so I can be out of the obesity zone. <br>Good luck to you!!!!!<br><br>P.S. I am new to this site...

@misilva83 <br><br>good luck misilva83! i've found tweetwhatyoueat really helpful for tracking what i eat <br>xx

you'll get there! i am 5'1 and want to get to 110 as well. just start with small goals at first. i was 125.4 two weeks ago today i am 121. this site works if u keep at it! good luck! leah

@leah_estelle <br><br>Thanks for replying! How many calories do you have each day? exercise too? xx

@pink_bubble_yum I'm aiming for around 1100 a day. sometimes I eat less but actually i have a pretty sedentary lifestyle so i find i can eat around that much and not be hungry. this might be too little i'm not sure, but if i get hungry i will eat more but seems to be ok for the moment while i'm studying. i dont have much time for exercise right now coz i am so busy, but my boyfriend wrote me a weight training schedule last night (i have a couple of dumbells at home) to tone up my arms shoulders, sides and stomach. he guarantees it will work, but i'll see!! ill definitely stick to it and see what happens and let u know! how many calories are u aiming for each day??
