Basal Metabolism (basal metabolic rate)

This PHP program calculates basal resting and active metabolic caloric rates. It came into existence as a teaching tool, so that daughter could teach Dad how to program in 1988 Amiga Basic. Dad is diabetic, so the exact proper balance of nutritional elements was of importance to him. graph Dad had this ancient book (say 1950's vintage) with a graphic, where for example, you located your weight on one line, and your height on a different line, and by laying a ruler between the points on their respective lines, crossed yet another line, etc. Dad is also a spacey old physicist from the vintage that remembers slide rules, so he could actually figure out the algorithms for the lines on the printed page. Daughter is actually an old graphics programmer from the early '80s vintage, so she knew the line crossing algorithms. The results of the father/daughter collaboration are the algorithms for this program. It was ported to PHP by the daughter.


lose weight What do the results mean? (for losing weight / for gaining weight) gain weight
Based on personal experience: To lose weight, you must eat less calories then the basal caloric rate. To gain weight, you must eat more calories then your active caloric rate. Also based on experience, the algorithms used - do NOT work, for those lean young men, who seem to be able to eat forever.

This is technically incorrect. A person should never eat less then their Basal Metabolic rate. However, personal experience with this Basal Metabolism Calculator yields the earlier advice. I can only conclude that the value this calculator calls the Basal Metabolism Rate, is not the real and true Basal Metabolism Rate.

By the way, Dad at 77, finally got curious enough to learn how to surf the net.
