  • After I eat my exercise calories back that's usually about what I end up with.

    Started with MFP numbers. Tweaked it using the Harris Benedict formula. Then used the feed back loop of comparing actual results with predicted results. And made small tweaks over time as needed.

    To be fair, 2780 includes a 500 cal surplus (this is before exercise; on exercise days I eat around 3200).

    This whole post was really meant to be a parody of all the "1200 cal" posts we see, where people say, "I'm on 1200 calories per day. Anyone else?". It's totally arbitrary how many calories a random person on the internet is consuming.

    Ahhhhh......I got ya. I was curious though because although I havent been hungry, MFP has me at just under 1900 which seems pretty low for me.
