    How do you guys know that 4000 - 5000 calories a day is your maintrance. Did you slowly increase it? Did it match iifym.com suggested TDEE, was it very far off?

    You figure it out by trial and error
    That is why you log and track your food intake, then you can figure out what that amount of food will do.

    calculators are good, in that they will get you in the ballpark of where you need to be....but then you have to do your homework once there.
