That sounds a little low for a big guy like you. I'm 5' 9", 33 years old... I just checked an online calculator and it says my BMR is about 1700. Goodness gracious that's a low number. Here I've been restricting my calories to 1900 calories and thinking I was 500 below my BMR. By the way, I found the number I was using (2400) with the iPod app Lose It! I'll have to rethink my strategy. Somehow I've been able to drop 7lbs of fat and increase my strength a good amount. Your BMR is only 1900? That sounds a little low for a big guy like you.

Energy balance is my primary guide. I don’t really seek out any particular food for it’s marketing merit as being ‘healthy’ or not…mostly because there is no such thing as a ‘healthy’ food.
