Maintenance Calculator That Sets Your Daily Calorie Target In Seconds
How Our Maintenance Calculator Works
We use your age, sex, height, weight, and activity to estimate your daily burn. Then we give you one clear calorie target to maintain weight, plus simple protein, carb, and fat grams.
Step 1
Enter your stats and activity. We calculate precise maintenance calories.
Step 2
We convert calories into protein, carbs, and fat so meals are easy.
Step 3
Follow the number, track for a week, then adjust using fixed rules if weight drifts.
Our maintenance calculator is a helpful starting point, but everyone’s body is different. For medical advice or specific concerns, consult a doctor or dietitian.
