To maintain weight, the chart below shows you your daily calorie limit. It's based on your age, activity level, and the BMI (body-mass index) of 21.5 for women and 22.5 for men. To lose weight -- about 1 pound a week -- reduce total calories in the chart by 500 a day.
This is the total number of calories you would need to maintain your current weight. Calculate Calories to Lose Weight. One pound of body fat is equivalent to 3,500 calories â which means a person must cut that many calories from her diet to lose a single pound. By eliminating 500 calories a day, she will lose one pound in a week. So, if your daily caloric need is 1917.9875 to maintain your weight, subtract 500 from that, and you'll have the number of calories you can consume each day and still lose a pound in one week. In this case: 1,417.9875 calories.
