Ok. How much do I need to eat? (BMR Related)
When I first joined MFP, ate 1200. Failed. Got the great advice to look up BMR. Did it. Set my eating to 100 calories more than BMR. Lost 5-6 lbs quickly. Then plateaued. So I decided to look up my BMR again. And got three different responses from three different calculators. MFP - 1540 BMI Calc.net - 1630 Muscle and…

"Dirty and high carb eating"! Works for me!
With all the different "diets" being touted, I have to put in my 2 cents. I eat "dirty" and I eat lots of carbs, yet somehow I've maintained basically the same physique for over 20 years. I eat junk food weekly, along with candy, cake, ice cream, diet soda and Asian food with lots of MSG and sodium. Every year I have a…

question for those that understand body metabolism...
Thermogenics. I read article after article on these and get conflicting, self-serving information on these. Most articles sponsored by a manufacturer.

Yet another TDEE question
I calculated my BMR and my TDEE. My BMR is 1866, and my TDEE is 2476. So, cutting back 20% on my TDEE puts me at 1981 cals for the day. That seems like so much for me considering I ballooned up on not much more that that in the past. But, I'm fighting against my whacked out frame of mind for weight loss and admitting that…

Changes in eating
