Have you Calculated your Real TDEE?

I'm 5"4', 150lbs, and I workout hard 4 times a week for around an hour, hour and half just lifting weights.

Looking at my numbers over time, my TDEE with working out is apparently 2600 calories. Is that even possible?

What are your numbers, provided you've actually analysed your stuff?

    Yep, I track everything, food, exercise, body fat, weight, the works.

    I started with the assumption that my TDEE was 3300. My intake target was 2300-2500. Turns out my TDEE is actually 3600, under the assumption that I'm logging exercise burns accurately. My target is then generally 2500-2800.

    I'm 6'1", around 250 lbs (and dropping).

    Was it MFP that gave you that 3300?
