I want to eat more calories!!!
I did my math...BMR 1347, TDEE 1616.4. I used the Fat to Fit calculator and it's telling me that I can eat 2007 calories to get to my goal weight. But that is above my TDEE? Is that right? I am 5'7'', 130lbs. I am trying to get nice and lean. I think I've gotten skinny fat from a 1200 calorie a day diet. I love to exercise. I'm currently doing 3 mile interval runs and 30 day shred 5 to 6 days a week. I know I'm not eating enough. I have only been netting 850 calories. I am big time lacking energy. And you are suggesting 30% fat, 30% protein, and (gasp) 40% carbs? Set me straight. I will follow it to the gospel! And Bales, I notice you say not to just start eating all the extra calories at once. Spread it out?
Thanks ahead of time!
