Low = average − 200; high days adjusted to hit weekly deficit target.

How it works

Plan alternating high- and low-calorie days while hitting a weekly deficit target.

Who it's for: Dieters who prefer variable daily intake over a flat daily deficit.

Low days are set ~200 cal below the average deficit target.

High days are adjusted so the weekly average hits the desired deficit.

Enter TDEE and average daily deficit.

How to use

  1. Enter TDEE, Average deficit (cal/day), Low days, and High days per week.
  2. Read Low day, High day, and Weekly average calories.
