⚠ This is an estimate, not medical advice. These numbers are calculated using the Mifflin-St Jeor formula and standard activity multipliers. Actual calorie needs vary by metabolism, muscle mass, hormones, medication, and overall health. Please consult a certified dietician, nutritionist, or doctor before starting any weight-loss, weight-gain, or fitness program especially if you are pregnant, nursing, under 18, or managing a medical condition.

FAQ

Common questions about calorie needs

How many calories should I eat to lose weight?

A common approach is to target a loss of 0.25–1 kg per week, which works out to roughly 275–1100 calories below your daily maintenance calories. Faster loss is not recommended without medical supervision.

How many calories should I eat to gain weight?

Targeting a gain of 0.25–1 kg per week, or roughly 275–1100 calories above your maintenance calories, supports a gradual, healthy weight gain.

Does the number of workouts per week change my calorie needs?

Yes. Training more often, and at higher intensity, raises your total daily energy expenditure and therefore the number of calories your body needs to maintain its current weight.

Is this calculator 100% accurate?

No calculator can be perfectly accurate for every individual. This tool uses the widely used Mifflin-St Jeor formula for a solid estimate, but real needs vary by metabolism, muscle mass, hormones, and health conditions treat it as a starting point.
