Calorie Calculator (TDEE)
Calculate your Total Daily Energy Expenditure (TDEE) and recommended calories for your goal.
What Is the Calorie Calculator (TDEE)?
Total Daily Energy Expenditure (TDEE) is how many calories your body burns per day. It is calculated from your Basal Metabolic Rate (BMR) multiplied by an activity factor. BMR is estimated using the Mifflin-St Jeor equation.
Formula
How to Use
Enter your age, sex, height, and weight. Select your activity level from sedentary to very active. Choose your goal (lose, maintain, or gain weight). The calculator shows your BMR, TDEE, and recommended daily calories.
Example Calculation
A 30-year-old male, 180cm, 80kg, moderately active: BMR ≈ 1870 kcal, TDEE ≈ 2900 kcal. To lose 0.5kg/week, aim for TDEE − 500 = 2400 kcal/day.

Frequently Asked Questions
What is BMR?
Basal Metabolic Rate (BMR) is the calories needed to maintain basic physiological functions at rest — breathing, circulation, and cell repair.
Which formula is used?
This calculator uses the Mifflin-St Jeor equation, considered the most accurate for most people: Men: 10W + 6.25H − 5A + 5, Women: 10W + 6.25H − 5A − 161.
Is it accurate?
TDEE equations are estimates with ±200-300 kcal accuracy for most people. Metabolic rates vary based on genetics, muscle mass, and health conditions.
