How is ideal weight calculated?

This uses the Body Mass Index (BMI) range considered healthy by the CDC: 18.5 to 24.9. We solve that range for your height to give a weight band in pounds. BMI is a useful starting point but doesn't account for muscle mass or body composition — an athlete may weigh more and still be perfectly healthy.

Reaching your goal

Once you have a target, the path there is steady daily habits — logging meals, staying in a modest calorie deficit, and moving. MyDietJourney makes the daily part effortless: snap a photo of your meal and AI handles the calorie math.
