MFP gave me numbers that were too low.. My BMR is up around 3500 somewhere, MFP had me at 1700. I'm slowly adding calories back. I'm up to 2000 but I need to be at around 2200-2400.

Daily Goal: Intake at least 2000, I burn 1000 a day, 2,000 + on long run training days, so my net is typically 1200-1400 goal. It is tough to eat that much back in a day especially all healthy!

More important is knowing your resting metabolic rate.

More important is knowing your resting metabolic rate.

which I do know, but when you are training for a marathon and burning through 7.000 calories a week and not intending to lose weight anymore, merely maintain and build muscle strength, the resting rate is really not what should be the guideline. Everyone is different though, which I think is the point to this thread :-)

MFP gives me around 2,000 extra calories a day for exercise, but I don't eat them back.

BMR : ~1800
TDEE: ~2400 (according to an HRM i wore for 24 hours on a day i barely did anything)

my daily calorie goal is 1850

i have quite a bit of muscle mass and work out with heavy weights. i tried going by MFPs calculations which had me eating 1200 calories but it was affecting my strength training and HIIT workouts. i couldnt have that because pushing through those suckers is what makes my exercise enjoyable :laugh:

MFP set me at 1200 as a daily goal. My exercise calories bump me up to around 1650-1700 per day, most days. I eat my exercise calories and it places me where I am supposed to be!

I just went to see what MFP calculates for my BMR, out of curiosity. They calculate it much lower at 1298. This is too low, imho! Eek! To think people are eating below their BMR and calorie goals set by MFP.

Daily goal is 1200, but on days I exercise I try to eat back about 50-75% of my calories, depending on how hard the workout was and how hungry I am.

Daily Goal: To eat more than that, hahaha. I'm trying to eat about 100-200 calories over that, but it's a process. Ends up being a lot of eating to me!
