    in Calculating TDEE based on daily activity Comment by wowens1 April 2012
  • OKay...a little comparison: MFP says my BMR is 1500 calories as well as calorieline.com. However, I'm am trying to make sense of it all. If I eat 1500 calories I will stay right where I am.

  • I recognize my 'stress' eating as an eating disorder. I look forward to the food putting me in a happy place. Kids in bed and a movie and great empty calorie filled food.
