Calorie Deficit Calculator
A calorie deficit occurs when you consume fewer calories than you burn. Since 1kg of body fat contains approximately 7,700 kcal, a daily deficit of 500 kcal theoretically produces 0.5kg of fat loss per week. Sustainable deficits are typically 300–500 kcal/day — larger deficits cause muscle loss and metabolic adaptation.
💡
Tip: Protein intake is critical during a deficit. Aim for 1.8–2.4g/kg body weight to preserve lean muscle mass while losing fat.
