Calories Required To Lose Weight

How much calories do I need to lose weight?

The Calorie calculator allows you to calculate how many calories you require daily, in order to lose a certain amount of weight within a certain time period.

For example: If you are 86kg (189.6Ibs) start of November and would like to be 78kg (172Ibs) by Christmas, you would specify that you want to lose 8 kilograms (17.6Ibs) in 2 months. This is how it differs to other calorie calculators which only allow you to calculate the amount of calories daily with a specific weight and period.

The calorie calculator is very useful for weight management as it displays how much calories are required over the specified period of time. It keeps track of your weight loss and calories required. The less you weigh, the fewer calories you will need to take in for weight loss to continue.

NB: Any (-ve) negative values are shown in red, ie trying to lose 50 pounds in 1 week is not possible. Values in yellow indicates a very low calorie intake. As a rule of thumb you should not go below 1200 calories.
