For women, yes but you can check on the BMI calculator- this said I could have between 1500 and 2000.
I usually average 1500 and I'm still losing weight.
I would personally check your recommended calorie intake on an app like my fitness pal as everyone has different calorie requirements due to height, age, weight, lifestyle etc and this will make it more accurate.
Hi Newbie! I also need to lose 2 stone. I'm 5' 3 so my calorie in take should be around 1400. I aim for 1200 because if I hit it I feel like I've achieved something but if I go higher (I usually do) then I know I'm still ok. For some reason, no matter what my goal, I always go 100-200 cals over, so if I aim for 1400 I'll end up having 1600 and gain weight!
You'll find after a while that you can see how many calories are good for your body to lose weight but do use the NHS calculator because it's a scientific equation.
Good luck with your weight loss!
