So after a couple of months of losing weight I decided to do some math and figure out my real Tdee.
I am a 6'2 Male age 38 and Since June 1st I have gone from 217 to 197 lbs.
I started by taking the total amount of weight loss and dividing it by the amount of time in weeks which was 20÷6. This came to 3.333
Then I took the amount of pounds lost per week and times'd that by how many calories are in a pound of fat. 3.333×3500. This came out to 11,666 calories.
From there I divided that number into how many days are in a week to find the average number of calories I was in a deficit in per day. 11,666÷7. This came out to 1,666 calories.
Then I took my average calorie intake average from my calorie tracker app and added 1,666 to the total. 1951+1666
My real Tdee as a 6'2 male with light activity and weight lifting 3 times a week is 3617 calories per day.
Everyone was telling me and all the online calculators said I should be around 2800 ish per day, but well, there it is.
