This means that whatever your daily calorie maintenance level is, you need to eat about 20% BELOW that amount per day. Here's an example. Let's say your daily calorie maintenance level is 2500 calories. In this example, you'd first see that 20% of 2500 is 500. That means you'd need to eat 500 fewer calories per day, which in this example means you'd need to eat about 2000 calories per day in order to lose fat at the ideal rate.
The supplied calculations help you estimate how many calories you burn daily and how much you can eat to maintain your weight. If you want to lose weight, conventional advice is to trim 500 to 1,000 calories from what you burn daily. This size calorie deficit yields a manageable loss of 1 to 2 pounds per week, since one pound equals 3,500 calories. So, if you determine you burn 2,400 calories per day, you need between 1,400 and 1,900 calories per day to lose weight.
