I always weigh right when I get up after going to the washroom and before I consume anything.

Congrats on the weight loss!

BMR = 370 + (21.6 x 64.9)= 1771 TDEE= 2303.4 So to lose 2 pounds a week I should eat 1300 calories a day, correct? That's still below my BMR, so that's ok?

How do I calculate my BMR and TDEE once I do know my body fat percentage?

I just googled a calculator for them. I'm not sure what my body fat percentage is, I will have to find out... Reluctantly! Lol

Amazing! Good job you look great!

I definitely know you don't have to be overweight to have sleep apnea :) But it can be a cause and that's why I'm wondering how often losing weight helps to 'cure' it, and real peoples experiences. My nurse at the sleep clinic told me the worst case of sleep apnea she had seen was in a woman weighing 120 pounds!

The lungs aren't the issue with sleep apnea. It's your upper airway being blocked off while you are sleeping. Some peoples anatomy just makes that happen and sometimes it's due to excess weight.

Wow, scary! I'm glad he is ok! Thanks for sharing :)

I've never heard of medication for sleep apnea! I am 29.

Sounds good to me!! I will be so happy the day I can get rid of that thing for good!

Thanks for sharing! You look great, so much younger now!
