    This is great, thanks for sharing! Are all the cells based on those formulas, or is there other info (like the recommended macros) that come from other sources? If so, do you mind sharing what those sources are? (I always like to read the original stuff myself.) Thanks again :flowerforyou:

    Weeks of readings across multiple websites, and cross referencing.
    Approved by folks who have been able to measure directly their value. There is of course an error margin, but very very low. Same apply to the food you log. There is an error margin of 2% I'd say per food :)

    Edit, I built it from scratch :)

    Very nice...the difference in my BMR using Mifflin St Jeor (sp) and Katch McArdle is huge (~by 200 calories). I know my bf percentage (via bod pod). Which should I follow?

    If you know your BF, use the Katch-McArdle one, that one is the same regarding the gender :-)

    Word of warning - Unless I did something really wrong, that won't work for very overweight folks. According to that, my activity level is .53, and I work out 5 days a week, at least. Yes, POINT five three. ROFL! But it is an impressive tool for folks who are a normal weight and wanting to build muscle and that sort of thing! Great tool!

    Shannon

    .53 is not an option for activity level.

    Sedentary (Little or no exercise + desk job) 1.2
    Lightly Active (Little daily activity & light exercise 1-3 days a week) 1.3/ 1.4
    Moderately Active (Moderately active daily life & Moderate exercise 3-5 days a week) 1.5/ 1.6
    Very Active (Physically demanding lifestyle & Hard exercise or sports 6-7 days a week) 1.7/ 1.8
    Extremely Active (Hard daily exercise or sports and physical job) 1.9 /2

    I like this - I think. if I don't want to gain, what do I put in the chart? can I put - something?

    Sorry if it's a dumbass question :P

    I updated it for you :)
    There is a weight loss plan, safe enough to prevent any stuff that would make the loss dangerous (shrinking thryoid, catabolism, resistance, fatigue, etc...)

    Hey, if you want to lose, just use the cut value, that gives you a daily 15% deficit.
    I'll add later a colum for a weight lose estimation plan :)

    i need the weight loss column

    HELP!!!:frown:
    any chance of making it pounds and inches for those of us (ME!!!:embarassed: ) who royally suck at figuring the conversions?

    I'm 167 lbs
    5'9
    activity level is Sedentary
    NO clue what the body fat % would be
    Ideal weight gain? i want to lose 27lbs to be my goal of 140lbs
    current cals is 1200/day

    So we still enter say ".5" into the weight difference column, and then go by the weight loss plan...

    I estimated my body fat % at 23% (need to get this measured but think that s accurte). It says I should eat 1725 to cut @15%... since I have restricted my carbs to 130 or less - I was WAYYY over every day, not just a little I am having a hard time reaching 1200...
