well they say you are meant to have about 1500 - 2000 calories. Do you know roughly how many calories you eat because you are meant to decrease that by bout 500.
Hope that was help. let me no how you get on

haha!
try not to decrease you calorie intake rapidly though because your body will have a shock but decrease over a period of time. So it lets your body adjust.

Let me no what you come up with xx

Sorry don't know the answer to your question but there may be answers in the sections on weight loss. or have a look at slimming world online, weight watchers online or even something like Tesco
