Calculate Your Caloric Intake

This calculator is more in line with my MDs thinking. At this point I'm thinking this may be a simple "too many calories" kind of thing. I am trying to stay at 2,000 or less. The calculator is telling me my daily limit should be 1700-1800 cals with moderate exercise. That's to get to 180. I am 187 this morning. With 50-75 mi. of cycling during the week I'm thinking 2,000 cals will be OK.
