First let me say, I love my bodybugg.

But for those who don't want the hassle and or expense, I have found that this BMR calculator, is extremely close to what I burn according to my bodybugg.

scale for my feeling of accomplishment anymore. I just add up my calorie defecit and divide by 3500 calories. After a month, I have noted my weight loss to be exactly equal to what it should be for the amount of calories I have used over the amount I consumed.

It has really helped me get past the scale watching, which really isn't as accurate, since your Water weight can change as much or more then the amount of fat you have lost.

BMR Calculator

If you use dailyplate.com and add in any physical activity for the day, you will be very very close. So close it is down right scary.

I in fact don't pay much attention to the scale for my feeling of accomplishment anymore. I just add up my calorie defecit and divide by 3500 calories. After a month, I have noted my weight loss to be exactly equal to what it should be for the amount of calories I have used over the amount I consumed.

Yep, I did the same thing when I was losing. I watched my BMR and BMI go down together. ;o) And, I used TheDailyPlate as well. I still have my weight loss graph and I still record reading here and there when I think of it.

That site works really well, thanks for sharing.

I guess it also goes to show why it gets so hard to lose as you get close to goal. After BMR goes down substantially with weight loss, you would have to cut out a large amount of additional calories just to maintain the initial rate of weight loss.

It also really helps to show how big of an impact exercise makes when it comes to calories burned.

For me it shows how much you have to work out extra, as you go down in weight. I guess this is why people don't just keep losing?
