Lost in Translation??
Could somebody give me a rundown of all these fancy terms you guys use? What does TDEE stand for? What does it mean to be in a "deficit"? I've seen other confusing terms/slang here that I just don't get. Is there a dictionary, or at least a kind stranger who can help a sista out?
