TDEE = the amount calories your body burns in a 24 hour period, sleeping, working, exercising, etc.
BMR = the amount of calories needed to keep you alive if you were in a coma0 -

This is the best explanation I've seen that was just posted by another user, cmeirun.
BMR (Basal Metabolic Rate): This is the amount of calories you need to consume to maintain your body if you were comatose (base level).
NEAT (Non-Exercise Associated Thermogenesis): The calorie of daily activity that is NOT exercise (eg: washing, walking, talking, shopping, working).
EAT (Exercise Associated Thermogenesis): The calorie requirements associated with planned exercise.
TEF (Thermic effect of feeding): The calorie expenditure associated with eating. (Pretty small)
TDEE (Total Daily Energy Expedenture): Total calories burned. BMR + NEAT + EAT + TEF = TDEE0 -
