  • That makes so much sense, and inspiring too! I will definitely be more mindful of how I lift weights now! Also, about the 1300 cals thing, that is my BMR and the reason I use that is because I want to input my exercise on an individual basis, rather than guessing my activity level. I say my TDEE is about 1400 because…

  • Ok, thanks for the great advice. The thing iis, I log my exercise from day to day so MFP tells me my deficit. Therefore I don't think I need to calculate my exercise again into my TDEE. I guess did look better 20 lbs heavier -- except my thighs. I'm really wanting to regain the muscle but not the fat. I guess that's my…

  • Thank you everyone soooo much! Because I am sedentary, my TDEE is 1400 cals. Therefore, am I fine eating 300 cals below, which is 1100...? I ate 1300 today and I feel sooooo stuffed.

  • Hi guys-thanks for your help. Can someone please explain TDEE to me? I've heard it a lot but don't know what it is. Yeah, I didn't mention that I'm trying to eat more. It's kind of hard. I have a mental block I am slowly working at chipping away. If I don't eat more than my BMR, will I just get fatter?
