How many in are you?

Not how many beers silly...how many calories are you in for the day so far? Me? I'm at 1,000. I have 400 left for dinner. I've already had my snacks so I'm good. And on the menu for tonight baked salmon, green beans and jasmine rice.

Will post the recipe after I make it tonight. Thinking Asian style salmon. Yummy.

Food labels always have something listed like, "values based on a 2,000 calorie diet" - but a friend told me recently that 1,500 calories a day should be the norm. How do you know how many calories you should or shouldn't be having?

I aim for 1400 per day, but I am trying to lose a little weight slowly. If you go to http://nutrition.about.com/library/bl_nutrition_guide.htm then you can determine how many you need to reach a particular goal or maintain your current weight. It also allows you to account for exercise.

Most people are between 1500-2000 to maintain their current weight.
