how accurate was it for you? what were your weight loss results so far with it?

I put me as a light exercise 1-3 hours and put my current weight/ and to lose 15% body fat.

this explains why I was so hungry.

anyone females /males who eat 1500 calories

    i have just started using scoobys calories advice i upped mine from 1200 to 1600 and lost 0.5lb in first 6 days and also feeling a lot happier not so hungry. i also used fitness frog site and quoted the same calorie intake too so i am guessing it must be pretty accurate

    thanks so much

    I am trying to determine whether to put me as sedentary or a light exerciser


    I do walk away the pounds for 24 minuets 5 days a week

    would that be considered a light exerciser or a sedentary person

    I work out Monday- Friday and also Sunday afternoon at my daughter's school fitness room.

    i would say light exerciser because it says light exercise is 1- 3 hours a week and 24 minutes 5 days a week is 2 hours then you got the other exercise on top.

    That would put you at light activity level. Very few people are truly sedentary unless they literally sit on their butt all day.

    Scooby suggested 2600 calories. This is picking the 25% deficit.

    I sloooooooooowly gain weight at that intake.

    I just last week began using it so it's too soon to see results for me yet.
