Step 1

Your starting information

Adults aged 18–80
Calculation profile

The Mifflin–St Jeor equation uses one of two sex-based constants. Choose the profile that best fits the physiological input your healthcare records use. This is only an equation variable and does not describe gender identity.

Choose conservatively. Sessions are not added on top of this multiplier.
Primary goal
This goal uses a maintenance-centred starting point, so no rate of weight change is requested.
