5' 7"
335 pounds
Deskjob, but try to do some type of exercise everyday, whether it be lifting or couple mile walks or bike ride.

Fitday says I burn 4100 calories a day! But that has to be too many; a 1000 calorie deficit would put me at 3100 calories and there is no way I would lose weight on that.

Say I wanted to lose 2 pounds a week, how many calories do you think I should consume?

Just curious your guy's take, I know there is no set answer and I will need to experiment a bit.
