Calorie Intake Equation

I mentioned this equation last night in chat. I don't really count calories but I can ballpark and I think this turned out to be pretty accurate for me.


STEP 1:
(______x 4.5) + (_____x 15.88) - (_______x 5) - 161 =________
weight height in inches age total #1

STEP 2:
Multiply your total #1by the appropriate percentage (below)

sedentary 20%
lightly active 30%
moderately active 40%
very active 50%

STEP 3:
Total # 1 + Total # 2 = Daily Calorie Intake

EXTRA STEP:
To lose weight subtract 250 calories per day to shed 1/2 lb per week. Subtract 500 calories per day to shed 1 lb per week.

No worries Marsha....throw a date out there. I'm going to take measurements and pics around the 12th for sure but we can always post when everyone is ready.

Dave does it really work? Wow....I get a little bit overwhelmed doing equations.

Not from the CLA/GLA-the exercise program Callanetics is what is being referred to. I advise you to read the sticky at the top in the Vitamin & Supplement forum-to to the first posting-KyCowGirl has the info posted there that will explain the combo.

Hey Calli people, My library has absolutely NOTHING on callanetics. And they won't do interlibrary loans of video tapes. Any suggestions on where you got yours?

Finally got results of Fridays MRI, here goes-
1. Prominent extruded disc fragment on the right at L3-4
2. Mild disc protrusion on the right at L2-3
3. Degenerative disc disease at L4-5 and to a lesser degree at L5-S1

When I told my Dr I wanted an appt ASAP, they really took me seriously and got me in to the neurosurgeon at 10:30 tomorrow morning!! So by tomorrow afternoon I should know what kind of plan they have for me. I just want it done SOON! Not going to Mexico but dsh and 2 dds are so I will have to wait till they get back to plan anything. MIL already said she will come take care of me if I have surgery. She is so sweet, she came and took care of me last year when I had to have a hysterectomy(1 year ago today).

Okay-I will be right back with my measurements from then-to-now.
