    That means that you burn 2298 calories every day. That number includes organ and body functions, exercise, running errands, walking to the mailbox, doing the dishes, etc.

    Thank you! I wasn't sure what it meant. I have my calorie goal at 1300 every day but very rarely make it to 1300.

    There is a group called eat more weigh less. It gives really good info on TDEE.
