A reasonable estimate for a sedentary person is https://www.omnicalculator.com/health/bmr-harris-benedict-equation multiplied by 1.2. Plus any activity on top. Worth calculating—you might be at a much bigger calorie deficit than you think.When I’m at a 200-400 calorie deficit for a while I can still be very active, but my mood feels flat and I have a hard time getting excited about anything.
Thx. I was thinking:
1kg is roughly 7700 calories
I’m losing a bit more than 1kg per month
Deficit of 9k calories per month is 300 kcal daily
Please let me know if that doesn’t make sense : )
