After some research and careful consideration, I decided to go the TDEE x 20% route. It just seems to make more sense to me this way. I will still use a HRM when I exercise just because I like to know the payoff for the work I put in, but I will log my exercise as 1 calorie burned as the TDEE method factors in calorie burn…

I love my Polar FT40. It tells you percentage of calories burned that are coming from fat, which I think is just cool to know. I see a big difference in percentages when I'm lifting vs. doing cardio.

Thanks! I am eating back all of my exercise calories and I'm currently set up to lose 1lb/week. Just wanted to make sure I wasn't screwing anything up with my net calories with having my activity level set as sedentary.
