TDEE - 20% Sedentary
So I used the Scooby Workshop calculator to figure out my TDEE -20%. I set my activity level to Sedentary, even though I do work out about 40 minutes every day..

Should I be netting my BMR?
I've been seeing some progress in my weightloss journey so far, but have been seeing my progress slow down a little bit... I've been all over the board with calories by eating like 2600 one day and then 1800 the next... I just calculated my BMR on three different sites and I averaged at 2283 calories a day..

As the subject asks; How many calories are you guys eating in the run of a day? I just want to compare to see if i'm around where I should be. Specify if you're doing heavy lifting or not as well, because i'm lifting but am afraid to up my calories. I am currently setting myself at 2100 calories a day and not eating back…

Losing not loosing!
There is a difference people! Losing is the correct way to say, for example: "I am losing weight." Loosing is not a word! /end venting

When to lift weights?
So I was reading up on a little article the other day, which seemed to be a bit on the amateur side, but it said that when you're lifting weights, you should give your muscles 72 hours [ three days ] rest before going at them again. Is this true that you should really wait this long to allow the muscles to repair/build? It…

New to the community myself!
Hey everyone, I'm brand new to the community and website here, but from what I can see so far, this looks like an excellent site to keep track of my weightloss, to eat healthier and to receive support from like-minded individuals. I already started my weight loss about three weeks ago and am down from 250lbs to 240lbs, so…
