Estimate your daily calorie needs
This calorie calculator estimates maintenance calories using the Mifflin-St Jeor BMR equation and an activity multiplier. The result is an estimate of how many calories you burn per day.
TDEE = BMR x activity multiplier
Where:
BMR=
Basal metabolic rate from body size, age, and sexactivity multiplier=
A factor representing daily movement and exerciseHow to use the result
Maintenance calories estimate the intake needed to keep weight stable. A moderate weight-loss target is often about 500 calories below maintenance. A conservative weight-gain target is often about 300 calories above maintenance.
