Hi,

TDEE 2249

How many do I eat a day?

I know MFP calories conflicts with this for me ? Its now coming up 1610 cals target on here and to me I feel like I am eating the same amount that made me fat in the first place. Is 1610 too much for me?

Hannah

    To clear things up NEVER eat under your BMR. That's the amount of energy your body needs to function properly.

    If you have a TDEE of 2249 you want to eat in around a deficit of 500 calories to lose 1lb per week. This would leave you eating around 1750 calories a day.

    This is a reasonable amount, although if necessary you could always do an extra 20-30 minutes of cardio a day. If you burn off 200 extra calories that you usually wouldn't have you could then eat 1950 calories and feel more full!
