My first problem with this site is that I think it is overstating the number of calories I need to lose the amount of weight I want to lose in the next six weeks. Other sites I have used to enter my weight, height, sex and daily activity level have suggested the amount of calories I need each day are less, like 500 calories less.

My second problem is that I had a hard time finding the amount of calories they suggest I burn in an average day, how much I should be eating to lose weight and how many calories I have left in a given day. Their “calorie balance equation”, which tells you the calories you burn minus the calorie restriction to lose the amount of weight in your desired amount of time, is here: go to the “Weight Goal” tab. At the bottom of the page are a set of 6 tabs. Go to the tab that says “Calorie Balance”.
