MedGem Results

Hey Everyone,
I recently had a MedGem test and my dietician and I were shocked to see my BMR was quite lower then expected.
She had currently based my calorie intake on 2415 MBR giving me a 1400 calorie diet or 1600 calories if i went to the gym that day.
My MedGem results were 1980 MBR which she said was alot lower than normal. I am now on a 1100 calorie diet and 1300 calories if i go to the gym that day.
I was wondering if anyone has had the same results or have done the MedGem test.
I am learning to love vegtables and lean meat, as 1100 calories is easy to go over.
Any support or ideas would be appreciated!

Hi, I am a new user and see that your post was from back in May. You are actually my first post to respond to, so I hope you see this
)) I could have written your post, down to the exact numbers your test showed. Have you gotten any ideas or suggestions? I would like to hear, too
