Frequently Asked Questions
How many calories should I eat per day?
It depends on your age, sex, weight, height, and activity level. Most adults need 1,600-3,000 calories daily. Use this calculator to get a personalized estimate.
What's the difference between BMR and TDEE?
BMR (Basal Metabolic Rate) is calories burned at rest. TDEE (Total Daily Energy Expenditure) includes BMR plus calories from daily activities and exercise.
How do I lose weight with calories?
Create a calorie deficit of 500-1000 calories per day to lose 1-2 lbs per week. Never go below 1,200 (women) or 1,500 (men) calories without medical supervision.
Are all calories the same?
Calorie-wise, yes. But nutrition-wise, no. 100 calories from vegetables provides more nutrients, fiber, and satiety than 100 calories from candy.
