    Thanks so much for putting that all together, I'd read bits and bobs but nothing so clear!
    I've gone through several calculators and come up with 1600 average, and my TDEE is 2090 average, so going with the -20% thing I've reset my calorie goal to 1600 as I'm in no rush to loose, infact I'm worried about loosing too quickly and bouncing back up...

    YAY , just tried it out, and guess what I can eat more...Happy DAYS. Bonus as you don't need to recalculate calories daily based on if you've worked out on that day or not. Also gives a healthy target weight loss chart with a realistic goal. Fitter than I thought! Hope it works although must remember not to eat my calories back as you would do using this site. Thanks again

    Thank you. This explanation is awesome. I saw the original post that's referred to, and started this over the weekend. The explanation here really helped me wrap my head around it.

    Now I have a question, a bit off topic:

    What does it mean when someone posts: "Bump."?

    I'm a bit new at this, sorry if it's a stupid question. :huh:
