    I have no idea what NEAT or TDE is lol. But I'll answer the questions I do know!

    Female
    5'5
    172 lbs (started at 204 lbs)
    1,200 - 1,400 cals
    Workout 4-5 times weekly. (1-2 hr cardio)

    I don't eat my calories back, I may had eaten a little extra that day but I exercise at night and don't eat anything after so if I'd eaten a bit much that day I should be in the safe zone from exercising.

    NEAT, eat back calories if I am hungry, if not...even better :)
    I NETTED 990 calories per day on average during the last 30 days (I just whipped out my calculator)
    BF -> no real idea, used the army method and calipers, but both methods are not really reliable.
    I walk 12-15k every day and would like to start running again.

    1400 + 50-75% exercise calories, so generally around 1600-1800

    This is my first week really using MFP, so I've been eating 1200 calories/day, but may up it to around 1400.
