Following a healthy lifestyle does not require that you count calories.  However, as you learn more about eating the right foods, many people find it helpful to better understand the food they are currently eating and the calories they carry.  The link below will help you to establish a baseline of calories needed to maintain your current weight.  Keep in mind that there are many other factors which affect this, so this should serve as a starting point for you.

Calorie Calculator

As a nutrition coach, I offer an online program which automatically calculates the calories, fat, protein and carbohydrates in the food you eat.  It then compares your daily totals to your target amounts for each of these, based on your goals.  Having this knowledge helps you to make smart choices so you successfully meet or even exceed your goals!
