lol, i was going to let this one die but just had to add:
"Instead of using the cookie cutter approach of subtracting 500 kcals per day that most tend to advocate,
people should just try to subtract 10-20% from their maintenance caloric intake. This way, larger individuals take a bigger "hit" than smaller individuals as far as cutting calories is concerned. For instance, take a 200 pound male and compare that to a 110 pound female.."
that is quoted from Tony Gentilcore which I read in an article that was posted here today by
someone
