Many thanks to all of you for your thoughts.
I've lost 4ibs so far since May 1st
I think the last couple of weekends have gone a little adrift.
I've been saving the calories during the week mon-fri if you see what I mean.
Working out regularly and have stopped the weekday boozing which I was and had been doing on a very regular basis.
I want to lose between 14-20 pounds and feel that being too too restrictive will just get very depressing !
When it came to the MFP I entered in my details and included 4 days of workouts. It has given me a TDEE of 2920. Goals are
2420 calories per day for 1 ib a week weight loss..
I take it the TDEE is maintenance calories ??
So either way you look at it am I right in assuming with my profile :-
6ft 3
242 ibs
I've chosen light activity because I'm a sales guy and walk around, drive the car, etc..
4 days week training
Do my calories of around 2500 a day sound right ????
