Hi,

What calculator or online tools do you recommend for finding your BMR? I've tried using several and they all fluctuate by a few hundred calories!

Thanks

    If you know your body fat% then Katch-McKardle is the most accurate in my opinion. Either way, they are all estimations and will get you pretty close to the bullseye. If you check your weight and aren't moving toward your goal, then you know you will need to make a small adjustment and just go from there. So at worst, you'll be inconvenienced for a week or two, and you'll have your answer after that.
