I understand that in order to GAIN a pound it requires 3500 calories of unspent energy in the body. Therefore, to LOSE a pound you'll need to burn off 3500 calories, or 500 calories a day to lose a pound in a week. I wouldn't focus on calorie consumption as much as I would on burning an extra 500 calories a day.
