Ok on a second thought, Im still confused - If my BMR is 1925, isnt that the basic amount needed to function? So if I was eating to 1500 and doing 675 wouldnt that take me to 925cal per day? Isn't that dangerously low? I've run through a couple of BMR calculators and it says if my BMR is 1925 then I need 3326cal per day to…

Yeahh but if MFP goes up to 2lb per week I dont see why thats bad if thats an option on here - also having very little else to do, Id rather spend a longer time in the gym? What is TDEE method? I kinda like to have a target thats set in stone and then review it from time to time. I have adhd and depression and anxiety and…

Ahh right - well I guess it depends how fast you're going? If I'm going hard enough to break a proper sweat its 300 in 30mins - thats on Elliptical Trainer - I have quite weak lower legs/ankles so I find I can do a more consistent and longer workout than on the treadmill - 30 mins in Im not tired at all either - thats why…

Ahh thats very clear - thanks! I'm still getting to grips with MFP as I've only just started doing proper workouts - prior to that I was mainly just cutting down on food/re-balancing diet.

Ok - Atm in my life I dont work, I dont clean and I dont really do a great deal else - my daily routine consists of getting up, eating, going to the gym, eating then sitting at my computer for the rest of the day. As I said, I go to the gym every day - atm iv been doing half an hour cardio burning about 300cal then an hour…

Cool okay - well 1300 is what Iv been having WITHOUT exercising at all, and because Im trying to lose weight fast. I do want to get into weight training - but my main priority is just to lose the weight first. Is it not easier to lose fat down to a normal size and THEN do muscle building rather than trying to do both?

Right ok - thanks for that info! Although - I am currently on a caffeine detox as up until a week and a half ago when I was in such a bad state my resolutions were either rapid lifestyle change or death, Id been drinking 14 cups of coffee and 5 cans of Monster Ripper energy drink every day for over 3 years - Im currently…

Thanks for your advice, and to everyone who posted. My fitness level is low and my body fat is quite a bit, but not outstandingly terrible. Im currently 5ft 10 and 13.4 stone - trying to get down to 11 stone or less before I even attempt applying muscle/ doing a proper workout. Atm my daily calorie intake is 1300 without…
