How many calories should a person eat a fday 2 lose weight?

My bestfriend is 5 foot 4 inches tall and about 245 pounds,she's been trying to lose weight and I don't know what to tell her she's been asking me for suggestions.how many calories a day would be good for her and what type of exercise would be good,she...

doesn't want to go to a gym so im guessing she'll work out at home..help please she's driving me crazy..lol

That depends on her current caloric intake.How much is it?

OKay I think that Im perfect for helping you with this problem I'm about 5'4 and a half and about a week ago I weighed 210 today I weigh 200 and I've been doing this diet where you only eat 1300 calories a day but in certain times of the day only. If you want details send me a comment and I will tell your friend or you step by step how to follow my diet

I was heavy at one time so for each person it's different. 2000 - 1500 a day along with exercise. One way to help from going away from the table hungry is to drink 10 or more oz. of water prior to eating. Also be sure to cut out the junk food chips, candy ect.. Replacing it with fresh veggies ect. And remember not to get discuraged. It can take some time be for a noticeable differance may show. GOOD LUCK !!! If you fall off the diet wagon remember to crawl back on the next day. And yes reward yourself with goal set along the way. And be relealistic using baby steps

wow umm thats really over weight tbh she should go to see her doctor and he/she will set up a diet and excercise plan for her to do, and he/she will monitor her progress and make sure she stays healthy because dramatic weightloss can be dangerous

I know I was thinking the same thing but I didn't really want to say that because she's my friend and I wouldn't want to hurt her feelings.
That's why I came on here to ask you guys
