// FAQ
Good to know
TDEE vs. BMR — what’s the difference?+
BMR is calories at complete rest. TDEE adds everything else — walking, exercise, digestion, fidgeting — to give your true daily maintenance number.
Which activity level should I pick?+
Most desk-based people with a few weekly workouts fall under 'Lightly' or 'Moderately active.' If in doubt, pick the lower option and adjust after two weeks based on real results.
How do I use this for weight loss?+
Eat below your TDEE for a deficit, or use our dedicated Calorie Deficit tool for a target tied to a specific weekly loss pace and goal weight.
