Do not worry about calories...Eat until you are satisfied..especially during induction... then if you are find that you are not losing later on you might want to check out how many calories you are consuming.

All you need do on induction is to eat according to the plan, avoid bars and shakes, and feed only your hunger, no more. If you do that, the calories will look after themselves.

I would advise you to begin tracking your foods on Fitday or similar website or software after your first two weeks. It can really help you pinpoint problem areas (like too few/many calories) pretty quickly.
