    Around 1700 sounds absolutely right!! :smile:

    And remember... TDEE INCLUDES your exercise.. SO do NOT "eat back" any exercise calories! Just eat 1700 cals !! And if you must eat below it, never eat below your bmr.

    Enjoyyyy and thanks for taking in the info and looking at that thread I posted :flowerforyou:

    Thank you that makes sense :) I 'feel' that 1300-1400 will be right for me on non training days which is around my BRM.

    You're not doing 1200 right.

    Please DO NOT turn my topic into a 1200cal debate. I'm asking for alternatives to 1200cal a day, not to be told I'm doing it wrong. You don't know me, know what I'm eating or doing so do not pass judgement.

    Gee some ppl p!ss me off.

    Anyway moving on.

    OK my BMR is around 1380. TDEE is around 2080. So according to another post I should take the difference (700), half that (350) and add to BMR so thats 1380 + 350 = 1730. Wow that seems like alot to me.

    On training days do I eat my exercise calories on top of this too?
    :laugh: maybe you shouldn't use baiting titles in future? just a helpful hint for you.

    also your tdee - 20% is 1664.

    Thats crap, how is a totle that states that *I* am ready for a change baiting? Did I say that 1200cal is 'wrong' and no one should do it? No I didn't. This is purely about where I am and what I would like to do, stop trying to make it bigger than what it is.
