What is the minimum of calories your supposed to have in a day?

The number of calories you should eat each day depends on several factors, including gender, age, height, sex, amount of exercise and overall health. A physically active 22 year old man requires considerably more calories than a 5ft 2ins 22 year old woman who does not exercise. The basic breakdown is calories = weight if you are simply existing in life. So if you eat 1200 calories a day you will weigh 120lbs. Now if you add exercise to the equation you would need to add more calories to maintain the weight. If you are concerned the best course is to see a Nutritionist or your doctor.

Are there any diet pills available for quick fat loss?

The body requires a specific number of calories to maintain its weight and/or gain more weight. The loss of excess body fat requires deficit calories, that is, eating fewer calories than are consumed in the course of a day's activities. Taking pills does not create deficit calories. There are some "diet pills" that may help to reduce cravings and one's appetite, but there is no pills that in and of itself rids the body of fat.
