Hi anyone in the group using the nrolfw book? did you get your calories from there?
I ask because it shocked me last night.
It says my RMR will be about the same as a 5'4" woman.
What I mean is in the calculation there is no differentialtion for height.
Then you go through the multipliers and height comes into play for your BMI.
Turns out, because I am older, 37 I should be eating less than a 5'4" woman.
I am 5'9".
Other online calculators set my RMR at about 1680. Fat2Fit or Scooby`s. and others.
Nrowlfw says my non workout days should be 1668 or less than my RMR for other sites. Am I missing something here? Is my book messed up?
Anyone try this themselves?
I like the workouts but this really threw me for a loop!

It did the same foe me, I think it's because we are over 35. I have opted to take the info from scooby and it is working really well.0

I don't know your BMI, but mine is over 25 so with that and being over 35, He also calculates our BMR by 1.2 and 1.4. So on scooby I use the light option. Hope that helps a little more.0
