Hi Everyone! Does anyone know why there is a difference between the BMR MFP gives you and other calculators on the internet. Or has anyone else noticed this? On every other calculator on the net, my BMR is about 150 higher. Even with some sites that factor in your activity level. And the ones I've come across all have the same number (with in about 10 calories). I just thought this was strange.

Thanks in advance!:smile:
