How to find calorie intake for weight loss?
I've started going to the gym and want to lose some weight. My trainer told me to track my calorie intake, but I'm not sure how to calculate how many calories I should be eating for weight loss.

Dude, for weight loss, calorie deficit is key! I just use one of those online calculators, put in my age, weight, height, and activity level. Then it gives a rough number, and I try to eat a bit less than that. Works for me for now.

Hey! Honestly, don't stress too much about exact numbers. Start by cutting out sugary drinks and processed snacks. Just focus on home-cooked meals, lots of veggies, and drink plenty of water. Small changes make a big difference, yaar!

The simplest way to start is to use an online TDEE calculator first. That gives you your maintenance calories. Then for weight loss, aim for a 300-500 calorie deficit daily. And alongside that, regular walking or any exercise you enjoy will really boost your progress, if your doctor says it's okay.

Namaste! Finding your true intake is about listening to your body, not just numbers. Eat mindfully, chew slowly, and stop when you feel satisfied, not full. Stay positive and believe in your body's ability to heal and balance. Take care of yourself.
