No one here can answer that question.
The amount of calories a person needs depends upon information we don't have and should be determined by a trained dietitian.
An infant needs a different amount of calories than an 85 yr old wheel bound woman.An Olympic athlete needs a different amount than a teen boy.An active pregnant woman needs a different amount than non active woman.
It is also based upon what you weight and if you are trying to lose weight, maintain or gain.
Good luck

I wish there was a device that told someone exactly how many calories one burned in a day. According to the calculator below I need 2750 calories a day. An inactive 5'6" 100 lbs. 18 year old female would need 1600.
These are simply estimates. I eat too much, but run a lot. Running 11 miles a week keeps off the belly fat I am told, but I run 25 miles and still have it.

average is 2000, but if you are looking to lose weight, you should have 1600 cals a day, just seen an episode of calories on rachel ray a few days ago.

It all depends on your age, weight and height. But on average for teens and adults it's 2000-2500 calories per day.

It depends on your height, metabolic rate, whether you're eating to gain, maintain, or lose. In general, if you're not overly active, 1800-2000 calories is considered good.

Depending on how active you are, 2000 is a good ballpark. The more you move around, or exercise though, the more you are able to eat, and Maritain weight, and so on.

Depends on your body size, weight goals, amount of exercise. But I'd say around 1500.
