if you guys want to lose weight... find out your RMR by:
For men, the B.E.E. = 66.5 + (13.75 x W) + (5.003 x H) - (6.775 x A)
For women, the B.E.E. = 655.1 + (9.563 x W) + (1.850 x H) - (4.676 x A)
Where:
W = actual weight in kilograms (1 kg = 2.2046 pounds)
H = height in centimeters (2.54 cm per inch)
A = age in years
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Combine that number with your daily activity level... heres a chart to figure that out on the bottom of this page:

whatever number you come up with.. consume less than 500 calories than that number, per day.. you'll lose a lb a week or so. if you wanna lose 2 lbs a week (anything more is unhealthy), combine cardio/exercise with that.
