Calorie Calculator

Calculate your daily calorie needs based on your BMR, activity level, and goals

How It Works

This calculator uses the Mifflin-St Jeor Equation to estimate your Basal Metabolic Rate (BMR) — the calories your body burns at rest. It then multiplies by your activity factor to get your TDEE, and adjusts based on your weight goal.
