Reaching Your Diet Goal

To create a calorie deficit you must burn more energy than you take in. Calorie Deficits can be achieved through dieting or by increasing your energy output (exercising) over your standard TDEE (total daily energy requirement).

Your TDEE can be calculated by multiplying your BMR against your Daily Activity.
Please see our Daily Calorie Intake Calculator on how to do this.

A healthy weight loss per week is between .5 and 1 pounds.

Some goals are realistic and some are not, always consult your doctor before starting any diet.



Finding Your Calorie Deficit

Step 1. TEWL (Total Expected Weight Loss) = Current Weight - Goal Weight

Step 2. Total Calorie Burn = TEWL * 3,500

Step 3. Daily Calorie Deficit = Total Calorie Burn / (Today - Goal Date)
