so I have finally received my turbo fire set - really excited

but I am struggling to figure out how many calories I should be eating - maybe its my nightshift brain that is making it complicated!

I am 210lbs and I am not active at all - but the calculation guide is telling me to eat 2082 cals a day

That just seems like a lot

any advice

Thanks

    I really struggled with this too. My mind can't grasp eating that many calories. I just finished month one and I'm trying to eat about 1600-1800 each day.

    If you don't eat enough though, your body will stall and you won't lose any weight. Each person is different though, start with what you feel comfortable with (I would suggest at least 1500) and try that for a few weeks

    I have planned to have 1625 (my tdde minus my 20% with activity) and the. Eat back what I burn based by my polar ft7 :-)
