How Calorie Calculator Works

This calculator uses the Mifflin-St Jeor Equation to calculate your BMR (Basal Metabolic Rate), then multiplies it by your activity level to get your TDEE (Total Daily Energy Expenditure).

Understanding Your Results:

• Maintenance: Calories needed to maintain current weight
• Weight Loss: 500 calorie deficit for ~0.5kg per week
• Weight Gain: 500 calorie surplus for ~0.5kg per week

Tips:

• Track your food intake to stay within your calorie goal
• Focus on nutrient-dense whole foods
• Combine diet with regular exercise
• Consult a healthcare professional before major diet changes
