    Basal Metabolic Rate or BMR is the calorie burn measured at rest lying down after an overnight stay in a clinic with no food or drink. It accounts for about 60-70% of most people's energy requirement in normal living.

    Total Daily Energy Expenditure or TDEE is the total calories you burn in a day. It's made up of :-

    BMR as above plus....
    Energy used to digest food - TEF
    Non-exercise activity - NEAT
    Physical activity energy expenditure - PAE
