Spreadsheet
Just something I noticed on Haybales spreadsheet...If I do 3 30 min walks and 3 30 min of weight lifting a week it gives me a 25% def. eating 1600 calories. If I do the walks and take out weight lifting it gives me a 13% def eating 1800! Obviously I would rather eat 1800. I asked before about 1600 being low and he…

Haybales spreadshet
Sorry I am asking you about this again! My husband helped me be able to save the spreadsheet so that I can finally use it. According to it it says my Daily food goal is to eat 1400. My TDEE is 1943. 1943 -15% is 1652 and EM2Wl recommends a 10% cut, which would be 1749. I am eating at 1700 right now. I am just wondering if…

Which do you think is more efficient?
Eating TDEE minus your cut percent of 15 or whatever you are doing or eating the maintenance calories for your goal weight? After plugging in the numbers I find that the difference for me is 200 calories a day. If I eat TDEE minus 15% I can eat 1600 daily. If I eat maintenance calories for my goal weight of 110 pounds,…

Which is better to consistent calories or cycling
If I eat my current weight TDEE minus 15% deficit I am at 1600. Working out a few times a week will make my net calories differ. I know you do not eat exercise cals back for this approach. It is all figured in. If I eat my TDEE for my goal weight I will be eating 1400. Because that is my bmr I will eat any exercise cals…

low calories high sugar
