Calorie Deficit Calculator
See what your planned calorie deficit could mean in practice
Compare maintenance calories against your planned intake to estimate daily deficit, weekly deficit, and a rough weekly fat-loss equivalent.
Daily deficit
400 kcal/day
Weekly deficit
2,800 kcal
Estimated weekly fat loss
0.4 kg
This is a moderate calorie deficit and often a sensible starting point for steady fat loss.
Important caveat
Useful for direction, not perfect prediction
Real-world fat loss is rarely perfectly linear. Recovery, adherence, water balance, and training all matter.
Good use case
This tool works best when paired with the calorie calculator, so your deficit starts from a sensible maintenance estimate.
