Use the calorie calculator to estimate the number of daily calories your body needs to maintain your current weight. Select the statement that best describes your usual activity level. Inactive: Never or rarely include physical activity in your day. Somewhat active: Include light activity or moderate activity about two to three times a week. People judge the intensity of their activities differently. And activity levels can change over time.

So think of your calorie estimate as a starting point and adjust it up or down as you alter your activity level.
