    Enter your stats into a TDEE calculator and see what it comes up with. Deduct 10 to 15 percent from that number. Eat back half of the calories burned while working out.
    Use a food scale to measure all of your food.

    umm if you do TDEE you do not eat back your exercise calories, because TDEE already has exercise built into it...

    I couldn't tell you the last time I ate 2 scrambled eggs or omelette.

    that makes me sad :(

    I'm not the OP, but two scrambled eggs and toast is pretty standard for me. I can't finish a 3 egg omelet, myself. I make up for it with extra cheese, though. Sorry that my preferences make you sad! :flowerforyou:

    I used to get this a lot, notably on the app. It often came up when I ate over 3500 calories for the day. I thought it was because I had a "net" below my BMR, but found that wasn't the case. If you're eating enough, I suspect it's an occasional glitch in the app. Don't sweat it too much, especially if it doesn't happen every day.
