I've used 4 calcs I found with the search tool. Ive gotten (using the same stats with all 4 calcs) calorie ranges between 2100 and 2490 for maintenance. Which one is right?
What activity multiplier would I use if I lift 3-4 times per week? Like what exactly is the definition of "light" and "moderate" effort for weight lifting? I'm not sure if I should use light sports 1-3 days per week or moderate 3-5 days per week. There should be a "light 3-5 days per week" to split the difference lol.

I'm 5'9", 150 lbs, not sure of bodyfat, probably 15-17% (32-33 inch waist)

Anyone help? I've already read the stickies and that's why I'm confused (all the different numbers the different calculators give me) Thanks.
