Calorie estimator - National Institute of Diabetes and Digestive and Kidney Diseases

Interesting Java applet for setting calorie intake goals:

I think it is overestiamting how many calories I can take in to loose weight. I don't think maintenance for me is 3100 calories. Somewhere closer to 2700 or 2800 from everything I have read. Still though, pretty close.

I think the calorie estimation is about what other sites have had it for me, at around 4000. There are advanced controls which allow you to make more changes, such as RMR, % of calorie intake as carbs, bf% etc. Which will all change your BMR.

One thing to keep is mind is these are all estimates, everyone's bodies are not the same. Some people will need more or less than they estimate to see results.
