    Hi! Would someone be kind enough to explain to me what this is for ? I know is for weight control not that just about it thank u!

    Several groups (Eat More 2 Lose Weight and Women Eating over 2000 calories and Eating for Future You) and many people on MFP that stalled or plateau'd in their weight loss, were given advice to eat more.
    It worked for the ones giving advice, and you hear back it worked for those taking the advice.
    They started losing weight again, usually the same if not better than before.

    Usually the problem was an unrealistic goal set by MFP based on user input, and/or not understanding the concept of eating back exercise calories.

    So the usual method of finding a deficit was brought to the way MFP works - you figure out with your daily activity and workout routine included from the start, what your total daily energy burn would be.
    And then you deficit some amount, which the spreadsheet has 4 different ways of doing that.

    Then you set your goal based on that, eat it every day, do your planned workouts you based the figure on, and lose fat and keep muscle as best you can.

    If you have not seen the discussions on TDEE and BMR, search for "stall" and "plateau" to see where it usually comes up.

    Spreadsheet just to make it easier, since there are several sites all doing basically the same thing, just no way to record the info.

    Any comment about including a HR zone table based on knowing your lactate threshold and zones based on that figure?

    In addition, I can get the formula's for the Navy bodyfat estimate, any benefit to just including that in it?

    Another place for ease of viewing compared to MFP - tab for daily log on weekly basis, and then place to put the weekly stats?
