AkousaCalorie Calculator
Calculate your daily calorie needs (TDEE) and BMR with macronutrient breakdown for weight loss, maintenance, or gain goals.
About Calorie Calculator
A calorie calculator estimates your Total Daily Energy Expenditure (TDEE) — the number of calories you burn per day including physical activity. It first calculates your Basal Metabolic Rate (BMR), which is the energy your body needs at rest, then multiplies by your activity level. This gives you a personalized calorie target for weight loss, maintenance, or gain.
How to Use
Enter your age, sex, weight, and height. Select your activity level from the dropdown. Choose your calculation formula (Mifflin-St Jeor is most accurate for most people). Click Calculate to see your BMR, TDEE, and calorie targets for different goals. The macronutrient breakdown shows recommended protein, carbohydrates, and fat in grams.
Common Use Cases
- Setting a daily calorie target for a weight loss diet
