❓ Frequently Asked Questions
How many calories should I eat per day?▼
Depends on your TDEE (Total Daily Energy Expenditure). For weight loss: TDEE minus 300-500 calories. For maintenance: eat at TDEE. For muscle gain: TDEE plus 200-300 calories. The average sedentary adult needs approximately 1,800-2,200 calories per day. Use our TDEE calculator to find your personalised target.
Should I count calories every day?▼
Tracking calories for 2-4 weeks is extremely educational — most people dramatically underestimate portion sizes and snack calories. After a few weeks, most people develop good intuition for calorie content. Long-term daily counting is not necessary for most people and can increase stress around food. Periodic tracking (1-2 weeks every few months) maintains awareness.
