Frequently Asked Questions
How many calories should I eat to lose weight?
To lose weight, you need a calorie deficit of 300-500 calories per day. Use our calorie calculator to find your maintenance calories, then subtract 300-500 for sustainable weight loss of 0.5-1 lb per week.
What is a calorie deficit?
A calorie deficit occurs when you consume fewer calories than your body burns. This forces your body to use stored fat for energy, resulting in weight loss.
How do I calculate my maintenance calories?
Your maintenance calories (TDEE) depend on your age, weight, height, gender, and activity level. Our calculator uses the Mifflin-St Jeor equation for accurate results.
How many steps burn 500 calories?
On average, about 10,000-12,000 steps burn approximately 400-500 calories, depending on your weight, pace, and terrain.
