This may be a silly Question, but what exactly is the BMR Cal. listed on my diet plan? Is it the amount of calories I use based on my size? Thanks for Answering!!

Bingo
Jeremy, this is your basal metabolic rate...the amount of calories your body burns daily as a process of your metabolism (heart beat, cellular regeneration, body functions). Fewer calories consumed per day cothan this results in weight loss...you are aiming for a calorie deficit to lose weight... An intake of more calories than your BMR (you may also come across this as Resting Metabolic Rate) and you gain weight.
