It's mostly gender, height and weight. The Chronometer app has the most accurate formulas for metabolism I've encountered, it was right on the mark for what it prediced over a year of dieting for me. I lost 49lbs.

Muscles do make a difference, they're calorically expensive to maintain, which is awesome if you want to eat a lot of food.

My kitten started attacking me and I've lost my train of thought, also am having to defend myself from this cheap shotting bastard kitten.

Been using MyFitnessPal for years but I will check that out.

Was 130 when I started weightlifting. Bulked to 200 over the course of like 5 years and cut down to 160, repeat a few times. Now at about 180.
