Do you have to intake a certain amount of calories per day or is three meals a day good enough, with maybe a snack in between the meals.

calories matter, in order to lose 1 lb of fat, we must decrease our calories by 2000 calories...
So for ever 2000 calories that we don't eat or burn from exercise, we lose 1 pound...
a normal male should eat about 2500 calories
a normal female about 1900 to 2100...

Yes it matters. The average caloric intake depends on a lot of different factors. But proper intake is between 1200 and 2200.

The number of calories that you consume each day is important. They determine whether the food you eat causes you to gain weight, lose weight, or stay the same. If you are staying the same on your current diet, and you are happy with that, then I think that you would want to stick with it.

It's the amount of calories you take in that matter. In order to lose weight you need to expend more calories than you consume.
