Your daily caloric intake to maintain current weight is: calories

Maintaining your current weight is a crucial aspect of a healthy lifestyle. To achieve this, you need to be aware of your daily caloric intake. This calculator helps you determine the exact number of calories you need to consume to stay at your current weight.

Formula: To calculate the daily caloric intake required to maintain your current weight, we use the Mifflin-St Jeor Equation:

Calories = Weight (kg) x 22 x Activity Level

Where:

• Weight (kg) is your current weight.
• Activity Level is a value between 1.2 (sedentary) and 1.9 (super active).

How to Use:

1. Enter your current weight (in kilograms).
2. Input the daily caloric intake you want to maintain.
3. Choose your activity level from the dropdown list.
4. Click the “Calculate” button.

The calculator will display the daily caloric intake required to maintain your current weight.

Example: Suppose your current weight is 70 kg, you want to maintain a daily caloric intake of 2000 calories, and your activity level is moderately active (1.55). After using the calculator, the result will be:

Your daily caloric intake to maintain your current weight is: 2310 calories
