Red...I wasnt directing my post at YOU. . I was just making a general statement. I was saying that the weight is 10-12 times. Skamito posted this - "The generally recommended calculation is 10 - 12 calories x current weight. Depending on your activity level this range could need adjustments. If you've tried this formula for a period of time (many weeks) and have not seen any progress, you might want to try slowly adjusting your calories either up or down over a period of weeks."

I was then just commenting on the 2000 calorie thing. In no way was my post meant to slam you or anything that you said. If you took it that way, Im truly sorry, it wasnt how I intended.
