Help Mr. X!!!

I had a quick problem that I needed you to address... if you look over in the Training section of this board I have my Titan Training Journal and what diet I am using. I am doing the CKD from your manual and training with Titan Training. I was wondering if my calories are TOO low to support such an intense program? I REALLY want to lose fat but my calories are 300-400 below my BMR some days... wont that prevent any gains whatsoever or push my body into overtraining? Leo Costa Jr. recommends a diet high fat and moderate protein etc.... so I dont know. Do you think everyday except my carb-up day could be @ my BMR? Or would that be too many calories for fat-loss? I want fat-loss thats probably my main priority but I really want to keep up the Titan Training and it just seems like 400 lower than my BMR is too low... Im doing 30 minutes of cardio on training days and around 50-60 on rest days....

REPLY ASAP I need your help bro!

I was thinking about following your simplified CKD recommendations... which are like 1g of protein for every gram of fat or somethin like that. And you stick to your BMR everyday...

There were 5 replies in this so I assumed X had replied.
Here goes:

You say some days your cals are 400 below your BMR? You are crazy!! Your BMR is your BASAL metabolic rate. You need to be 500 cals below your ACTIVE metabolic rate. In other words, eat more, and reasses your daily caloric expenditure.

Mr X uses BMR in his postings and manual to represent AMR, although his formula is too low (in my opinion).

In any case, it kind of washes out, because the use in his diet plan works out pretty well. The terminology just causes some confusion.

Hoffmeister...
Wait hold up... so 12xbodyweight is AMR I guess... thats kinda what I thought but I always figured 15xbodyweight was maintenance and 12x was what you needed for fat loss. So I guess I am doing everything right according to Mr .X. I hope he replies soon I need to make sure my calories arent too low... I lost 12 fucking lbs. in 5 days on the CKD following his caloric recommendations.
