Formulas for Weight, Metabolism, and Calorie Needs

$$\text{BMI} = \frac{\text{Weight (kg)}}{\left(\text{Height (m)}\right)^2}$$ $$\text{IBW} = 45.5 + \left(2.3 \times \left(\text{Height (in)} – 60\right)\right)$$ $$\text{ABW} = \text{IBW} + 0.4 \times (\text{Actual Weight} – \text{IBW})$$ $$\text{BMR} = 655.1 + (9.6 \times \text{Weight}) + (1.8 \times \text{Height}) – (4.7 \times \text{Age})$$ $$\text{Calories Needed} = \text{BMR} \times \text{Activity Factor}$$

These formulas help assess metabolic health and guide diet planning during pregnancy with gestational diabetes.

Gestational diabetes occurs due to hormonal changes during pregnancy, leading to elevated blood sugar levels. A proper diet and calorie management plan are essential to control glucose levels and support fetal development. This calculator helps expectant mothers track BMI, determine ideal weight targets, calculate metabolic rate, and estimate the number of calories needed per day depending on activity level. It supports healthy weight gain and nutritional balance for women with gestational diabetes.
