[quote=Anonymous]I don want to beat a dead horse, but I found a large fairly well done study of measured not calculated Basal Metabolic Rate for 5300 females and 2000 males of varying degrees of body composition. average for adult females was 1771 kcal per day +/- 301 Average for adult males was 2244 kcal per day +/- 413 these measurements are done with the patient in bed doing nothing, not even digesting a meal, regulating body temp, or concentrating or reading. Two standard deviations down puts you just under 1200 kcal per day for BMR. So less than 5 per hundred people. But minimal activity is going to burn a few hundred calories more. So if you are one of the unlucky to be 3 standard deviations below, i.e. maybe 3 per thousand, who burns less than 1200 kcals with activity, that really sucks. I doubt there are a lot of those posting Link if you want to look at the details http://onlinelibrary.wiley.com/doi/10.1038/oby.2009.162/full[/quote]
