Well with your stats the burn meter says that with light activity you burn 2300 calories a day and ideally you shouldn't have more than a 500 calorie defiecit in a day and the minimum intake of calories should be 1500 calories for men. I would recommend trying 1800 calories a day if your trying to lose weight and more if you are trying to maintain.
