I think that depends on how many calories taking in right now. A personal trainer told me to count how many calories you eat in a given day as close as you can and then subtract 500 from that and then continue at that level to lose weight at a safe level.

11 x (the amount of pounds you want to weigh) = number of calories required a day to get there. For example: 11 x 120 pounds = 1375 calories per day (this is for a woman)
