Calculate Your Daily Calorie Requirements

Following formulas show the approximate number of calorie you need to maintain your weight:

If you are sedentary: Current weight (lbs) x 12

If you are moderately physically active: Current weight (lbs) x 14

If you are extremely active: Current weight (lbs) x 16 or 18

Your weight is determined by your energy balance. If you eat more calories than you burn, you gain weight. If you burn more calories than you eat, you lose weight. If you burn the same amount of calories you eat, your weight stays the same.
