Why does the Spark People nutrition website over calculate the intake limits on your wt. loss goals?
Here is an example of what I am talking about:
Me: 6′ 5″ 290 lbs, I am wanting to lose 50 lbs in 7 months.
Here is what Spark People gave me to follow to achieve my goal:
Daily Totals:
Calories: 2010- 2360
Carbs: 251-295
Fat grams: 67-79
Protein: 101-118
To me, the calories and the carbs seem too high and the range is also spread too much. But I am no expert, I am thinking on logic here.
What do you think about the program that the Spark People calculator produced for me? Spot on or flawed?
