Hi everyone,

I just did my TDEE on Scooby's to see if was about the same as I had calculated it using other websites and I have a question. It said I should eat 1472 calories a day to lose weight. Is that 1472 net or total? I ran three miles this morning and burned maybe 200 calories so should I eat around 1500 or should I eat about 1700?

    If you included your exercise activity in the calculator then you wouldn't eat it back. 1472 seems a bit low though. What was your BMR?

    My BMR is 1338. I am 5'4" and 131 pounds. I run three miles a day but I put 1-3 hours because other than that I'm pretty much a taxi can service for our kids. Maybe this is why I'm struggling to lose, I'm just not calculating it correctly.
