What is the calorie intake number allowing you to lose weight quicker?

Simply, less than you use! However this makes it difficult to calculate, since it is on an individual basis.

This will roughly equal your caloric needs. Recommendations for how many calories below your caloric needs you should consume to lose weight vary, ranging from 250 to 500 calories.
