Hi Scott. I calculated my macors on the meal planner page a while back and have been working out for a few months, but I was thinking about it, and I realized I'm not sure if I filled it out correctly to get the right numbers.
The question that asks about my level of activity...is that supposed to be filled out with the CURRENT level of activity prior to my decision to start working out, or is it supposed to be filled out with my ANTICIPATED level of activity when I do start working out?
In other words, imagine I'm filling this out a few months ago prior to starting to work out. Before starting to work out a few months ago, I was not active. So should I have chosen "little or no exercise and desk job"? Or should I have chosen the level that I expect to be at once I actually start working out, which would be "moderate exercise or sports 3-5 days a week"?
I want to make sure I choose the right one because I noticed there is a huge difference of the BMR in motion it calculates using each of those two options. As I mentioned in other posts, I'm still working my way up to my BMR in motion calories goal, but I want to make sure I'm actually using the right goal numbers. I hope my question wasn't confusing...let me know if I need to clarify. Thanks!
