Hi all, just found this group and keen to give it a go. I did 1200 cals a day for a month and lost nothing , walked for 45mins 3 times a week. I started at the gym 2 weeks ago and go 5-6 times a week, 30mins cardio, 20 mins weights ( machines) .

I try to do heavy weights, 3 sets of 10 on each machine.

I looked into tdee and after taking off 20% I am at 2000 cals, so....... that's how much I should eat right? Sounds like alot....

I am 5 foot 4 and weigh 85 kg's......... 36 years old.

Please if anyone can confirm that the 2000cals a day sounds right then with above stats and workouts.

Thank you!

I'd advise taking only at 15% cut and eat that amount daily. On workout days if burn takes your net under bmr then eat back cals until you at least net bmr.
