You can then download and use their calorie calculator. Guessing from your height your BMR is around 1600 calories per day (this is calories burnt without exercising). PAL is more difficult to judge as everybody is different, but I would guess with what you say you probably use around another 1000 calories. This has to be balanced with calories consumed and the type of calories, such as sugar or fat versus carbohydrates.
