I'm not sure good question. I do know however if you join weight watchers online or at the facility they will give you a points counter and that goes by height and weight.

Actually I found a site: http://caloriecount.about.com. It is free. You log in how much you weight and your height and a few other details. It will give you how many calories you should be eating in a day. It also has a food journal and all. Hope this helps. Good luck!

I'm also going to drink a lot of water and try to eat healthy. I do tend to have a sweet tooth but I'm cutting...
