1. What Is The Weight Loss Formula?

The weight loss formula calculates how much weight you can lose based on your daily caloric deficit over a period of time. It's based on the principle that 1 kg of body weight is approximately equivalent to 7700 kcal.

2. How Does The Calculator Work?

The calculator uses the weight loss equation:

Where:

• \( deficit \) — Daily caloric deficit (kcal/day)
• \( days \) — Duration of deficit (days)
• \( 7700 \) — Energy equivalent of 1 kg body weight (kcal/kg)

Explanation: The equation shows that sustained caloric deficit over time leads to predictable weight loss.

3. Importance Of Caloric Deficit

Details: Creating a caloric deficit is the fundamental requirement for weight loss. This calculator helps women plan their weight loss journey by quantifying the relationship between deficit and results.

4. Using The Calculator

Tips: Enter your daily caloric deficit (typically 300-500 kcal/day for sustainable weight loss) and the number of days you plan to maintain this deficit. All values must be positive numbers.

5. Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Q1: Is 7700 kcal/kg accurate for everyone?
A: While this is a widely accepted estimate, individual results may vary based on body composition and metabolism.

Q2: What's a safe caloric deficit for women?
A: Generally 300-500 kcal/day is safe. Extreme deficits (>1000 kcal) may lead to muscle loss and metabolic slowdown.

Q3: Why focus on women specifically?
A: Women often have different metabolic needs and weight loss patterns due to hormonal differences.

Q4: Does the calculator account for plateaus?
A: No, it provides theoretical weight loss. Actual results may vary as the body adapts.

Q5: Should I adjust my deficit as I lose weight?
A: Yes, as you lose weight your maintenance calories decrease, so your deficit should be recalculated periodically.
