    I have a regulated thyroid condition and anyone with hypothyroidism usually tries the low-calorie route and a lot of people have tried the little calories, to feeling like starving only to stall or gain weight. People with this condition (and some other people) need to eat regularly to fuel that metabolism and get it churning, think of it as coal in the fire to make the engine run!

    If I eat 1300 or less, I stall, I try to stay at around 1700 per day for my size/height/thyroid stuff. I work out as well so it's needed. I do well at that.

    In the past I used to do the big 80's and 90's thing which was NO FAT, FAT-FREE EVERYTHING...I GAINED AND GAINED AND GAINED....good fats, omega oils, etc do not make you fat, they make you well and help you lose weight. I wish I had known! I did so much damage to myself back then listening to articles/radio/tv/doctors about that fat free crap! lol

    Now I eat extra virgin organic coonut oil, extra virgin cold pressed olive oil, almonds and nut butters and I LOSE LOSE LOSE......I am a winner yet I LOSE....

    ok..so let me see if I read this right..I recalculated my BMR=1412....TDEE=2189..so I think I understand..do I take 15% from the TDEE and that would be what I should be eating in calories daily???...I am new to all this and its a little bit confusing..thanks for any help!

    It does sound like it... I am listening to the YouTube link provided a few pages back... great info! I am new here too and getting lost in this thread.
