You're fine. The numbers look correct based on the sticky calc. Don't worry about being super exact. You're not going to stop making gains if you have 150g of protein or something. Just use it as...

Could you adjust it for body type? I.e. "I'm a mesomorph so I have a better chance of getting close to these numbers than my ectomorphic friend"?

Great, 2400 seems much more reasonable for maintenance numbers. Buen suerte.

Fine.

I'm still really curious about what's going to go wrong once in single digits, just for my own well-being.

Agreed. A comment above mentioned going from "20 to 14%" of which the pic obviously isn't and I didn't want to start a discussion about what the exact number is, simply that it's somewhere far above...

Then I need to re-assess my current fitness goals. I'm getting very close to 10% (probably 12%, was 13-14 when I posted in the estimate thread). I've been lead to believe it's a fairly linear process...

That's not the point of the calc; you don't need to know your current BF%, just put in whatever you'd like to be, say 10%, and the most you'll ever weigh @ 10%, according to that calc, is the number...

I think pics posted are > 15%


It's not much debate as to whether it's under 10... No idea where you were going with that.

Just came in to be vote #20 on "eat the whole egg" and "eat more veggies" and:
- Add in a vit D, fish oil for micros
- Don't eat so many small meals, waste of time
- Go out
- Sleep less

I'm...

Seems high for someone 5'8" 160 lb, but I guess you're not sitting in a desk all day and you're working out seriously 5 days/wk so okay. Yeah, you'd add 500/day max. Anything from zero to 500 is...

Matter of opinion, right? I personally think the ability to stay lean 100% of the time and start to bulk @ 6% so you still have abs when you're finished is the way to go through life. Being chubby...

Definitely different numbers than what is found here

To be specific, this is about 25lb higher

No 1700 is going to be your Basal Metabolic Rate i.e. how much you would burn were you to be comatose (zero physical activity). Once you get your BMR, adjust it based on your activity level. So your...

I'm currently on this right now. Love it. It's so interesting and funny - in addition to being informative. If you have any interested in food (and you do, you're in bb.com/nutrition) you'll get a...

Care to include your reformulated diet in your bump?

Cap it @ 48hr. I don't have a link handy but I believe that's the limit before you lose muscle mass. Will try to look it up the study if you're genuinely curious.

Thanks for that because while I did not find the product itself, I did go to the site and find an ad for "85% Extra-Lean Ground Beef" which means they're extremely liberal with what they call...

This is seems pertinent: I should presume my beef is not as lean as it actually states, and I should not be discounting the soybean oil simply because it's a ways down the list of ingredients. So my...

I retracted what I said about sour cream, no opinion on it. Go for it.

"Satiation is subjective" Yeah, if you have no trouble then ignore all of the above. You also gotta consider the source of...

Well, okay. That is why I posted a pic of the label.

I think lizdaly set me straight in that I need to be looking up "lean ground beef" instead of "chorizo" if I want to get anything...
