To tell you the truth, I couldn't give a good god damn about some internet karma, but your question doesn't really make much sense. Need to know a lot more to awnser it. The way I see it, nobody on the internet could ever tell you what you caloric intake should be. It just can't be done. That's the whole point of bodybuilding, you need to figure that shit out for yourself. Everyone has different genetics, metabolism and so on.
I would suggest you get a calorie booklet or something, and track hat you eat, what you burn, etc. Everyone is different bro, and I really don't think you will find the awnser on the internet. IMHO, use the internet for advise on particular druns, dosages, etc. You will never get more than a generic awnser to a calorie question. Good luck bro.

This is from A's manual:
1 gram of fat is 9 calories. There are 454 grams in a 1 pound. This gives you 4086 calories for 1lb of fat. If you want to lose that 1lb of fat you have to have a 4086 calorie deficit to do it. In other words, you need (negative) -4086 calories in your diet if you want to lose 1 lb of fat. Now, Let's say you are at 3000 cal a day for maintenance. That is 21000 calories a week. You believe the marketing of the post above and think you can lose 1.5lbs of fat. That, my friends, is 6129 calories which you have to subtract from 21000 which leaves you with 14871 calories for the week or 2124 calories a day. You are going from 3000 to 2124 a day. If you want to lose that great sounding 2 pounds you are now at 12828 for the week or 1832 calories a day.
Let's be realistic and put you at 2500 maintenance calories. To lose 1.5lb you now need 11371 calories a week or 1624 calories a day or a nearly 900 calorie a day change. To lose the magical 2lb a week you need 9328 calories for the week or 1333 calories a day or a 1167 calorie change per day!
Hope this helps you out.
