Calorie Deficit Calculator

Calorie deficit calculator for daily and weekly deficit estimates

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.
