Harris-Benedict form: BMR (basal metabolic rate)=9.6xwt. In kg +1.8xht. In cm. -(minus) (4.7xage in years). One inch =2.54m, and lkg=2.2#. The result in in # calories when resting. Light activity, multiply BMR x1.375; moderate activity use 1.55; hard exercise use1.725. When you eat more calories daily, use store it usually as fat, and if eat less, you should lose weight.
