This tool helps you calculate how many calories you need to consume daily to lose weight based on your personal information.
How to Use the Calorie Calculator
To use this calorie calculator for weight loss, please input your height in centimeters, weight in kilograms, age, gender, and select your activity level from the dropdown list. Once you’ve entered all the required information, click the “Calculate” button to see your results.
How It Calculates Results
This calculator estimates your Basal Metabolic Rate (BMR) using the standard formulas for men and women. It then adjusts your BMR based on your selected activity level to estimate the number of calories you need per day to maintain your current weight. To estimate the calories required to lose weight, a 500-calorie deficit is subtracted from your daily maintenance calories.
Limitations
Please note that this calculator provides estimates and should not replace professional advice. Individual factors such as muscle mass, body composition, and medical conditions can influence calorie requirements. Always consult with a healthcare provider for personalized recommendations.
