I use Fitday to track my nutrition, and just checked out the cals burned vs. cals eaten section. Its telling me I burn an average of 3,000 calories a day. I weigh 170lbs and I havent entered any activities into the program and i listed my lifestlye as "seated work, some movement". I've been going by my bmr this whole time, which is under 2k cals, so ive been shooting to eat 2700-3000 cals a day. This could explain why I'm not gaining weight like i want, but i find it hard to beleive im burning 3k cals a day NOT COUNTING lifting and whatever cardio i may do, which would bump it up close to 3500, meaning i would need to eat 4k cals/day to gain.
