    I just looked up my BMR and apparently it's 1540.75.
    That's how many calories you would burn just laying in bed all day. Your TDEE takes into account daily activity. 1800 is you calorie burn per day if you are mostly sedentary. If you are doing quite a bit of cardio like you said with the Wii and long walks, your TDEE will be higher.

    Eat at a surplus until your metabolism repairs itself.

    Hey there! I would HIGHLY recommend looking into Cassey Ho's POP Pilates. You can find her blog at www.blogilates.com. She is fun, perky, and has a lot of healthy recipes, excercises video of strength-training, cardio, and stretching, as well as a couple of meal plans. She has one in particular called the 90-day challenge, where you do 50mins of POP Pilates, two rounds of her cardio vids (which range from 5-10 min) and eat five-six small meals a day. All her videos range from 5-10 mins, and she has modifications for beginners. You could start with maybe doing one of her vids a day, then bumping it up until you're stronger. If the videos on her blog are too hard to begin with, she also has a place on Livestrong Women called Pilates bootcamp for beginners, which kind of eases you into it and helps you get used to doing Pilates. One thing I really appreciate about her is that, while she does talk about weight loss, the main thing she talks about is having a healthy lifestyle, and getting strong, fit, and healthy. It's not overly focused on weight-loss like a lot of trainers are. Her blog also has what she calls the POPstar community, where you can talk with other people doing her videos.
