Basal metabolic rate

Options
I just found a link to your 'basal metabolic rate', very interesting!
This works out the calories your body burns from lying in bed all day....a task I am often prone to!

The link is on the top tab under > tools.
Really interesting, I was very suprised! Mine's over 1300 calories, I'd never imagined you would burn that much by just breathing!
Is anyone else suprised?
