Calories - IS THIS CORRECT?! 😱

Question

My BMR = 655 + (4.35 x 151lbs) + (4.7 x 67inches) - (4.7 x 22).
BMR = 655 + 656.85 + 314.9 
         = 1626.75 - 103.4 
         = 1523.35
Calories = BMR x activity level
               = 1523.35 x 1.55
               = 2361.2
Do I seriously have to eat 2361.2 calories? 
I’m 67inches, 151lbs, and I workout about 30-45 minutes five days a week weight training. Waiting for my walking machine to do 30 minutes of walking three days a week.

Answer

The calories you calculated are to maintain the same weight. You should eat around 2000 with your activity level and be able to lose weight

Answer

That sounds high. I’m going to suggest you download the Myfitness Pal app to get a better calorie goal. Put in your height, weight and activity level (not including exercise) and whether you want to gain, lose, or maintain and it will give you a reasonable calorie goal. If you want to keep using the app to track calories, you can. Or you can delete it once you’ve got your figure.
