How many calories shoud I eat to maintain?

I posted the other day about gaining 6 lbs, well Im gald to say it must have been water and I needed to poop. LOL. Well anyway Im down to 143 as of this morning. Down 4 lbs. But when I had said that i consumed a little over 1800 calories some of you thought that was too much. and I have to admit 570 of those were from chocolate, now this is not a every day thing, eating that much chocolate. But I do snack alot and do try to snack on good things, fruits for example sometimes junk but I still try to keep my calories under 2000. I read one profile and she was consuming this much out i think around 9 months??.Im 13 months out. Differnet web sites will tell you different amounts on how many calories to eat to maintain. At least now I do try and keep up with that. Any helpful comments?
