[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]This is ridiculous. I’m 5’9 and have a resting bmr is 1230. Some people just have a slow metabolism.  800 cals doesn’t seem to me to be too low for someone short.[/quote]

Unless you have some kind of metabolic disorder, or are very old, I doubt your resting BMR is 1230. I am 5'2 and 45 and  mine is1390. Now, if you do have some kind of disorder, you don't really have anything to contribute here.

At any rate, I usually burn closer to 2300 calories a day with working out. But on a day where I am sedentary, just sitting at my desk and didn't get a chance to walk or work out, I'm still at around 1,500. Which means there's no reason to cut down to 8 even with the low resting BMR[/quote]

I wouldn’t say I have a metabolic disorder.  But, I’ve been a yoyo dieter my entire life, have gained and lost 100 pounds at one point and everywhere in between. I’ve had it tested at two places and unfortunately that is what it is.[/quote]

I'm 5'8 and mine is 1440. 5'2 pp, I think you have a fast metabolism.  [/quote]
