This was designed by obesity researchers and weight management professionals.
Tell me what you think. Good, bad, useless?
I thought it might provide a good starting point for calories and weight loss.

    I like that it's using research done by the National Institutes of Health. Seeing the science and the formulas behind this model really make it seem legit to me. Not to mention that the calorie amount it spat out to maintain my current weight was very close to what other websites had calculated as my TDEE, and the calorie amount it gave me for my current weight loss goal (15lbs in 60 days) was what my dietician recommended I eat.

    Very promising!! Great find!
