Steps to Lose Weight Calculator

Steps to a calorie deficit to a weight change is a chain of three estimates, and this page shows the range rather than a single confident number. Enter your weight, height, walking pace, the steps you already take and the steps you plan to take, and it returns the extra net calories a day and the likely weight change over a window you choose. Two figures come back: the familiar 3,500 calories per pound answer, and a smaller one that allows for the fact that a lighter body burns less doing the same walk. The steps-to-calories link is the loosest in the chain and the result says so, because a MET value is a population average and an estimated step length is not a measured one.
