Nah.  Ive had all the classes.  A simple formula which I had hoped you would
know
is your desired weight in pounds times 15 calories.   100pounds X 15calories per
pound = 1500 calories per day.  Thats for the average person who is doing very
little activity.

If you're a 200 pound man, you can get by with 3000 calories.

As for fat,  keep those calories around 30 to 35% of your caloric intake.

A 200 pound man X 15 calories per pound = 3000 calories per day

Fat calories of 30 % of his daily intake = 30% of 3000 = 900 fat calories per
day.
