alright im 17 years old, 5'3 and i weigh 118 pounds. i am not overweight but i have some extra fat! i have gained 8 pounds since summer and i want to get back down to 110 and have my beach body again! i plan on working out 30 minutes a day, and losing around a pound to 2 pounds a week. about how many calories should i be eating a day to lose this?
As you only want to lose a small amount of weight, I don't think you need to be worrying about calorie control, especially if you're working out daily. Just stick to a healthy diet which incorporates all the major food groups. You should be eating around 1500-2000 calories a day.
