Figuring out the right daily calorie intake is tricky—generic online advice often misses the mark, leading to overeating or undereating. Your basal metabolic rate (BMR), the calories your body burns at rest for essentials like breathing, digestion, and thinking, is key. This proven mathematical formula uses your personal stats to calculate it accurately.
Experts note that an average adult woman needs 1800-2000 calories daily for maintenance. But don't obsess over exact counts; focus on your BMR instead. For women:
BMR = 9.740 × (weight in kg) + 127.91729 × (height in meters) - 4.737 × (age in years) + 667.051
Adjust for activity level and sports. For weight loss, burn more calories than you consume. Consult a professional before changing routines.
