From: | To: |
This equation calculates the estimated daily calorie needs for women to lose weight fast (approximately 1 kg per week). It's based on the Mifflin-St Jeor equation with a 1000 kcal deficit.
The calculator uses the following equation:
Where:
Explanation: The equation calculates basal metabolic rate (BMR), adjusts for activity level, then subtracts 1000 kcal to create a significant deficit for fast weight loss.
Details: Accurate calorie calculation helps create an effective weight loss plan while ensuring adequate nutrition and energy for daily activities.
Tips: Enter weight in kg, height in cm, age in years, and select your activity level. All values must be valid (weight > 0, height > 0, age between 1-120).
Q1: Is this calculator only for women?
A: Yes, this specific equation is designed for women. Men should use a different equation.
Q2: Is losing 1kg per week safe?
A: For most people, yes, but consult a doctor before starting any aggressive weight loss program.
Q3: What if I feel too hungry on this calorie level?
A: You may need to reduce the deficit slightly and aim for slower weight loss.
Q4: Should I adjust calories as I lose weight?
A: Yes, recalculate periodically as your weight changes to maintain the proper deficit.
Q5: Are there limitations to this equation?
A: It may not be accurate for very muscular individuals, the elderly, or those with certain medical conditions.
