Find Your TDEE

Understand How Your Body Uses Energy

Your Total Daily Energy Expenditure (TDEE) helps you understand how many calories your body burns in a day, whether resting, working, or moving. Knowing your TDEE empowers you to make informed choices about nutrition, exercise, and whether medical support could help you reach your wellness goals faster.

At GetReliefRX, we believe knowledge is the first step toward confidence and control.

What Is TDEE?

TDEE stands for Total Daily Energy Expenditure, the total calories your body needs each day to maintain your current weight.

It includes your Basal Metabolic Rate (BMR) plus calories burned from movement, digestion, and daily activities.

How Is TDEE Calculated?

TDEE = BMR × Activity Level

Your BMR (Basal Metabolic Rate) represents calories burned at rest.

Your activity multiplier adjusts for how active you are throughout the day (from sedentary to highly active).

Why Is TDEE Important?

GLP-1 medications help regulate appetite and improve how your body uses energy.

Understanding your TDEE gives your provider insight into your metabolism and helps them determine the right dosage, nutritional guidance, and expectations for progress.

Can You Increase Your TDEE?

  • Adding short bursts of movement throughout your day
  • Building lean muscle (muscle tissue burns more energy)
  • Staying hydrated
  • Getting adequate sleep
  • Managing stress (high cortisol can lower energy output)

TDEE vs. BMI

BMI measures body composition, while TDEE measures energy balance.

  • BMI helps identify health risk categories

  • TDEE helps customize calorie goals for weight loss or maintenance

Used together, they provide a complete picture of your metabolic health.
