So any how I google my TDEE,BMR AND DAILY CALORIES.

TDEE= 2215
BMR =1429
DAILY CALORIES 1772 and it says reduce TDEE BY 15%.......

I m trying to figure how much I should be eating ? Im clueless I have just been doing what ever I thought works but then I think I eat too much pr not enough this weight loss thing is hard.

    Where did you get the figures from?

    You have mixed up your BMR and your TDEE.

    If your TDEE is 2215, 1772 is TDEE less 20%,. not 15%.

    Hi

    I am five foot 1 and have lost 21 pounds so far (weigh 139 now) by eating 1200 net per day and having one meal off a week to cheat. I have taken no notice whatsoever of the stats concerning protein, carbs etc...though I have been natually high in protein as I like it...

    I think sometimes people miss the basics...eat less, move more....I am sure it's just as simple as this....I do Zumba 2 - 4 times per week and I usually eat back most of the calories...

    Good luck!!

    Fellow 4'11'' here.

    I say keep it simple eat 1750 calories and do not eat your exercise calories. That is what I have done and I had great results.

    I was on a 1200 cals net/day plan (working out hard 3x/week). I gained a pound. So, I've just switched to the TDEE-20% plan. The plan works by... eating your TDEE-20%! Keep your calories at about 1770/day and workout :) (if I'm wrong, someone correct me).
