SORRY,another how many calorie question,please help!

I know there are tons of these,but I can't seem to figure this out.I keep coming up with 1400-1500 calories to lose weight.someone on another site told me 1600 for me to lose weight she could not tell me where she saw this.she told me I was not eating enough calories.I want to do this right and lose so if anyone can help me figure this out I would truly appreciate it.

height 5' 4"

weight 179 pounds

age 32 year old female

I am a stay at home mom so I basically clean house cook laundry etc. I exercise at least 3 times a week.so I'm not sure how active that is I guess I would be lightly active.please help!!! and if you could give me a link to a good site to figure this out that would be wonderful! Thanks-Candi

Your Estimated BMR (calculated at http://phord.com/cc):
BMR=1510 :: RMR=1812

Your customized recommendation:
EAT 1510 calories :: BURN 2076 calories :: LOSE 1.13 lb per week

(assumes light activity - you can go to the link to change your activity level - it also assumes that you don't mind having a greater than 500 cal deficit. If you are burning about 2100 - rounded up - you can eat 1600 and lose 1lb/week)

Thank you that was very thorough,I appreciate the time you took to help me!

Hmm helped me too.  Thanks! Mel

Yeah me too!  I've been busting my butt to have 750+ deficts each day, but this site says that losing more than 1.25 lbs a week isn't really safe for me since I weigh 126.  Very interesting!  I guess I'll shorten my workouts a little bit (thank God!!)
