Basal Metabolic Rate Calculator
Estimate the calories your body burns at complete rest using the Mifflin-St Jeor equation, then multiply by an activity factor to get Total Daily Energy Expenditure. Use the resulting kcal/day as a baseline for diet planning.
Health

Estimate how much weight you'll lose over a set number of weeks from your daily calorie deficit and exercise. Based on the well-established rule that ~7,700 kcal equals roughly 1 kg of body fat.
