Macros, Calories, and Math Oh My! A Guide on Macros and How to Count Them.

March 19, 2019May 3, 2019Categories Health & FitnessLeave a Comment on Macros, Calories, and Math Oh My! A Guide on Macros and How to Count Them.

Counting your macro intake leads to much better results than just counting calories alone. Even if you are maintaining the right number of daily calories, if your macro ratio is too far off the mark, then your body won't be in peak operating condition.

How to Calculate Your Daily Calories Yourself

March 18, 2019May 3, 2019Categories Health & Fitness2 Comments on How to Calculate Your Daily Calories Yourself

The two different equations that I discuss here are used to calculate daily calories (aka Total Daily Energy Expenditure or TDEE): The Katch-McArdle Formula, and The Mifflin-St Jeor Equation. However, before we get to those, we will need look at the activity level multipliers because they apply universally to both methods.

A Little About Us

Our OK Family is a personal blog run by a husband and wife team. Between us, we have the expertise of a microbiologist, a computer scientist, a writer, an editor, and years of parenting; and also years of failed financial management, failed weight management, poor health, and all the experience of getting out of that pit of despair.

We would like to take this opportunity to remind our awesome family of readers, that the articles we write are opinionated pieces, sharing our stories of what has worked for us, and that we hope will work for you too, but as with all things in life, this is something we cannot guarantee to you. And none of our content should be considered medical, financial, psychological, or other professional advise. If you are seeking this, then you will need to seek out an individual of the necessary profession to assist you, be that a medical practitioner, accountant, psychologist, therapist, or otherwise.

We share our words to help, and we truly hope that they do. As such we will always work to the best of our ability to provide you with the best and most accurate information we can, and will reserve the right to change an opinion or change the focus of our site as we learn and continue to share and grow with our community.

With love & respect,
Ryan and Michelle
