YOUR RESULT

Daily energy estimateComplete the details to see your estimate

Estimate the calories you use in a typical day.

What does this result mean?

TDEE means total daily energy expenditure: an estimate of the calories your body uses on an average day, including activity.

Use it as a starting maintenance estimate when planning how much to eat.

What can’t this calculator tell me?

It does not directly measure calories burned. Your activity and energy use change from day to day.

How is it calculated?

Mifflin–St Jeor resting-energy estimate multiplied by one of three broad activity factors: 1.4, 1.6 or 1.8. The factor mapping is a product simplification.
