I recently got my BMR tested with a Medgem V02 unit it said my daily BMR 2020 calories.
My question would be how close can I get to that number before my metabolism slows down?
Should my goal be eating 500 calories below my TDEE?
Also there are days when I work both my jobs and I definitely eat sub 1500-1800 calories, has that hurt my metabolism and how can I fix it.
The lady who did my test did say my metabolism was slower for my height and weight.(This was a dexafit location)
I have noticed as getting older of course it has become much more difficult for me to lose weight, where in a month I could drop-10-15 pounds, now I am lucky to drop 4-5 pounds in 2 months.
Typical macro breakdown 40-45 Protein, 30-35% carbs, 25-20% fat
Age 35 h 6'1 W 229
I get in 5 gym sessions a week, and do cardio 3-4 x a week 6 mile bike ride twice and 2 1.5 mile runs.
