Is it safe to assume that 6 years later, this is still an accurate way to determine BMR/TDEE?
Thank you both. Looks like no matter who’s calculator I’m using, I should probably bump my cals a bit.
A couple of possibilities:my weight is 400lbs and my height is 6 ft (72in) so my BMR = 3254 and my TDEE = 4475. I dont eat anymore than 3000 calories and im not losing weight...any suggestions?!? im looking to lose a substantial amount of weight again
i used the equation at the beginning of this post and came up with these results. i have been dieting on and off for a year nothing really seems to work...A couple of possibilities:
You're not tracking your calories accurately
You're losing fat but holding water for dietary or hormonal reasons
You haven't been dieting long enough to see results
You've vastly over-estimated your TDEE
Or you're a true genetic outlier for whom more aggressive/specific methods are necessary.
The last option is BY FAR the least likely.
