The recommended daily calorie intake varies depending on how old you are. For the average adult this is about 2,000 per day (women) and 2,500 per day (men). These calories should be made up of foods from the main food groups. If you're trying to lose weight, you could start by eating 500 less calories per day. This should help as long as your diet is well-balanced and you're getting lots of exercise. The recommended daily calorie intake is different for children, pregnant women and older people. See your GP for advice.

How many calories should a 5'6 124 lbs girl eat?

To maintain your weight... eat as many calories as you burn. Most humans, without even excercising, burn 1500-2000 calories a day just doing daily things and...surprise, surprise, living! If you are trying to lose weight, you have to eat a significant less amount of calories than you are planning to burn in a day. So, if you plan to go on a 3 mile run, and burn a total of 2300 calories in one day, to lose weight you have to eat less than 2300 calories. AND gaining weight is just the opposite...eat more calories than you burn.

You should check out a calorie calculator to see how many you are supposed to eat. you have to burn 3500 calories to lose one pound and an exercise reference chart would tell you what exercise burns how many calories.
