How it works: Your maintenance calories (TDEE) come from the Mifflin-St Jeor BMR formula times an activity multiplier. Eating about 500 kcal below TDEE loses roughly 0.5 kg/week and 500 above gains at a similar pace, because 1 kg of body fat stores about 7,700 kcal. Targets are floored at 1,200 kcal/day — very low intakes belong under medical supervision.
