Great question but it's not that simple since metabolic function is affected by what you eat, frequency and size of meals, and your natural metabolic function. Best to track CICO, diet approach via macros and learn how your body responds. And stress levels and sleep are contributors as well. Best wishes on your journey!

As sk said, there is no simple formula, and find the estimated number of calories burned is sometimes a bit generous. Depending on how hard you are working out and how often, you may just not really increase much at all unless you are really feeling hungry. Clearly, you don't want too few calories. However, when losing weight, I found it skipped along much quicker when I just enjoying the extra calories burned up rather than replacing them with eating more. No perfect answer.. I know! I'd trust your body and how you are feeling and losing rather than a "formula!"
