Step 1: Find Your Metabolism

Your weight:
(pounds)
Your height:
(feet/inches)
Your age:
Your BMR

Target Weight
-

This is how many calories you can consume to maintain your weight without exercise. Read on to find out how to lose weight with your BMR!

Although this calculation cannot include muscle mass and other important things, it can provide a goal for you!

*Note: This calculation is for women, a man's BMR is calculated differently.

*Note: You should not use this calculation if you are pregnant or breastfeeding. Please refer to our FAQ for tips on weight loss while breastfeeding.

Step 2: Set a Goal

You should aim to eliminate 500 total calories a day. The fastest way to do this is by watching what you eat AND exercising. We’ll show you how in the following steps.

If you do not exercise you should stay within your BMR each day. If you do exercise you should be able to allow yourself a few more calories! See below to find out just how many!

*Note the ACSM does not recommend eating less than 1200 calories/day and Moms Into Fitness follows this recommendation.

First choose an option on the left. Then below determine how many calories you burn during exercise. You'll see both activities and exercise listed below. Notice the difference between an activity and exercise! Exercise burns almost twice as many calories!

Use any of my DVDs, except the prenatal workouts and CFS Method, to burn the most amount of calories in the least amount of time. You can burn even more calories than jogging for 30 minutes! After weight loss check back in as these numbers will change!

These meal plans take the calorie-counting out of the equation since we’ve already done it for you. But it’s important to read labels and know how many calories your favorite foods contain. It takes only a small amount of time to read a label and after a while you will be able to estimate how many calories certain foods contain. Think about how that will benefit not only you, but your family too!
