You might find this calorie calculator useful:- https://www.forbes.com/health/body/calorie-calculator/ I also saw this on Google:- "One pound equals about 3,500 calories. If you consume 500 calories fewer than what your body uses to maintain weight daily, you'll lose 1 pound in a week. You can also increase the number of calories your body uses with more physical activity to create this caloric deficit."

Hi @HenryMartinez93 Great post - I think many people looking to tone up and lose weight have no idea how to do the calculations. As a consequence they either lose minimal weight or go overboard and lose too much too quickly. I wonder if an online calorie calculator might be useful for our site?
I havent been on for a while bit things seem to be moving again with a little more activity. I think an onlne calculator would be useful as I for one havent got a clue what my calorie intake should be and how I should adjust it to lose weight and become more toned.
1,500 calories per day would be seen as low caloric intake for the majority of people and is often not advised over the long term.
