The thoughts that I put down concur with the information given to me and the studies that were done to back them up.
Sorry man, I'm going to go with what I know works and continue giving people that information. As with anything fitness there are 500 viewpoints on almost everything.
Boyd the key is you're going to have to make some changes, for me personally if I don't eat every two hours I binge later in the day and end up eating 3-5K calories of crap instead of 2-3K calories of healthy stuff, that may be different for you. I swag'd at 2400 calories but Steve is right, you need to find our your Lean Body Mass (LBM) and calculate your required intake from that, the fat requires no energy to maintain itself.

I would be curious to see the sources for both of your information, this could make for a good debate/discussion thread that I would love to participate in. Would one of you be willing to start a new thread to discuss this and cite some resources?
