Calorie allowance

4 Replies

Can someone advise me on calorie allowance please? I worked out some time ago my calorie intake based on my weight as it was but my weight fluctuates and has now increased. Should I adjust my calorie intake now and should it change dependent on how my weight changes?

Thanks. I've inputted my details to the nhs calculator which gives me a calorie range higher than I'm currently using on myfitnesspal so I guess I need to change my goal intake then xx

Hi Leeds, have a look at the NHS BMI counter...you pop in your age, weight and energy level and it gives you a sensible range..I get to have 1400 to 1600 as I'm carrying five extra stones of padding at the moment.
