We would need more information such as your age, current height, current weight, and activity level. Even then we couldn't even you anything very accurate. This information would be helpful though.

Best of luck

I am 24 5'5 155lbs...{I know damn hog and it huh} but its all good I am optimistic and very determined ...My activity level includes a treadmill ,free weights , and I am kinda out of shape to say the least..

The average adult that has stopped growing eats about 2000 calories. If you move around more and are active you would eat more. Given your height and weight I would say go no lower then 1600, but I'm not a nutritionist and don't know for sure. I know a site that will plan your daily calorie intake based on your goals exercise and current height/weight. It's called http://www.caloriecount.about.com. They have forums for encouragement as well.
