put your details into your account settings and it'll figure it out for you straight away

You are underweight; this site was not designed to help you stay this way, it was designed for healthy weight management. About time you re-evaluated your goals.

Use the above site which is aimed at people under 21 and enter your stats.  At the moment you're probably in the 'at risk of being underweight' category depending on your age.  Since you've lost 50lbs to get to that weight, this is a serious concern.   Your body should keep growing until you get to your early twenties i.e. it's going to get bigger.   So if you're trying to maintain this very, very low weight the chances are that you could end up stunting your growth, halting development and.... worst of all... making yourself ill in other ways.

Even if you do nothing at all, you need about 2500 cals a day to meet your energy needs.  However, I'd strongly recommend you eat more than that so that you're getting good nutrition and so your body can grown normally. Daily exercise is also a good way to keep strong physically and mentally.
