    BMR is: 1515
    TDEE is: 1818 calories

    I’m having trouble wrapping my head around what I need to know and do with knowing what these 3 numbers mean. I know there are posts about this, but can’t find them. I’m new to the site and finding my way around. Thanks for the help. Y’all are very encouraging.

    Hi steno:

    Go to the top of the page and look in ‘How’. You will find definitions of the three.

    TDEE is the one most used. It is the number of calories needed by a body to neither gain nor lose weight. With 5:2 generally, you want to eat your 5/600 calories twice a week and eat at or below your TDEE for the other five.

    Here is more information on TDEE: http://thefastdiet.co.uk/forums/topic/tdee-for-the-curious-or-why-dont-i-lose-weight-faster/

    Good Luck!

    Thanks. I now see I’ve posted this before!
