Thanks Haybales so really for those of us NOT body building but resetting eating your expected TDEE is ok though.. as we want our TDEE to increase that's the whole point - or am I missing it totally :)

interesting article but miffed it didn't actually tell you a great deal - for example how does this help anyone: Stage 3: Metabolic Damage Once you're here, you have little choice. "Eat less, exercise less" is the only option. You'll need to focus all your time on rest and recovery. Walking and a few traditional weight…

YouTube! lots of good excises on youtube that you can watch for free Also 2nd hand sounds like a plan - but also look at getting some kettlebells too then are great for swinging around and using so lots of different ways to so cover a multitude of exercises! get 8, 10 or 12 and use heavy for legs squats etc and lighter for…

Someone explained it to me when doing a reset is if you put in heaps of weight almost over night then that is your glycemic stores filling up (might not have the right term there) which is a good thing (and should means it comes off too) keep upping cals until you gain slowly or 1lb over the week say - and then you can…

I would have thought that is was simply that people are exercising and such their bodies getting firmer and tightening up - and don't forget that calorie deficit does works for many many people so they could be losing fat too and redistributing things

I was also terrified but the first week of eating at 1600 - I lost 1lb!!!! this week I ate at 1900 - but didn't track so probably higher - and put on 1lb (but TOM so usually +3lb) 1925 is my TDEE at present (zero exercise) so will stay here for a week or so longer and see how it goes Happy if you want to friend up and help…

in a word - yes from what I know - and I am new at this - your body has forced itself into a low TDEE because of your previous diet so you need to eat your "supposed" TDEE for anywhere between 8-10wks until you gain nor lose in that time. then you can start the "cut" or deficit from that TDEE does that help?

stick with 1500-1600 which is actually your TDEE-20% anyways :) and unless you really go over board on exercise don't eat those cals and yes it feels like you are going against everything but your BMR (1397) is the cals you burn if you were sleeping 24/7 therefore eating less than that .... well doesn't make much sense - I…

totally with you all too! However just started a new approach and its really been working for me eat more 2 weigh less <- google it - also group on MFP already basically work out your BMR and your TDEE if like me you have been trying to survive on 1200 cals per day and its on/off - this hopefully will make sense your BMR…
-
worth googling "eat more 2 weigh less" for you - and then look at doing TDEE-15% - your TDEE should be based on your actual activity therefore you don't eat you cals back - but don't underestimate how much exercise you do - as suggest one of the higher brackets since upping my cals from the usual 1200 to 1800 I have lost…

Hey Jordymils Thank you so much for replying - I have since read quite a lot more after posting - which has given me a better "head place" whilst I am not sure I could do 8-10weeks TDEE I decided that if I could lose 1lb a week for a year I would be at goal - there whats 8-10wks at TDEE out of the 52! Plus I am now…
