Understanding Your Results

BMR (Basal Metabolic Rate): This is the number of calories your body needs at rest. Your BMR has been calculated using the Mifflin-St Jeor equation, which is considered one of the most accurate formulas.

TDEE (Total Daily Energy Expenditure): This is your total daily calorie needs, including your activity level.

Weight Management:

• Maintain Weight: Consume calories equal to your TDEE
• Mild Weight Loss: Create a 250-calorie deficit per day (about 0.25 kg/week loss)
• Weight Loss: Create a 500-calorie deficit per day (about 0.5 kg/week loss)
• Extreme Weight Loss: Create a 1000-calorie deficit per day (about 1 kg/week loss)

Note: Extreme weight loss should only be attempted under medical supervision. Never consume fewer than 1200 calories per day without consulting a healthcare professional.
