    Where did you determine your BMR is 1021? That's ridiculously low. For your age, a 4'6 woman who is 85 pounds is above 1100.

    What's your height/weight?

    Oh, thank goodness. See? I must not be doing something right. lol Currently 112.4 pounds/ 61 inches (5'1")

    Your BMR is somewhere near 1300.

    Sedentary TDEE is around 1550.

    If I were you, I'd set my calorie goal at 1250 and eat back exercise calories. Get at least 90 grams of protein and 35 grams of fat a day. Do Stronglifts 3x a week, some cardio 1-3 times a week. Done.

    Thank you so much! You are awesome. :bigsmile:
    My calories have been set to 1240 and I have been eating back my exercise calories, so I don't feel so bad about how I've been going about it now. Just need to find out about lifting and get my butt to the gym!

    Thanks to all you ladies, as well! You have been so helpful! I wrote all the websites down, and will be looking into all the programs you suggested! Will let you know where I am thinking to start when I get there!
