Why maintenance keto needs its own calculator
Many keto pages are written as if every user wants to lose body fat. In reality, some users want a keto maintenance calculator because they are already near goal weight, are weight stable, or want to keep a low-carb pattern without drifting into accidental weight gain. Maintenance needs different logic from a fat-loss keto calculator because the calorie target should be closer to actual expenditure, not a fixed deficit.
That is why this page uses current body size, activity, and recent weight trend to build a maintenance estimate first, then shows stricter and more liberal keto scenarios on top of that. It gives users a more practical starting point than recycling a weight-loss setup forever.
