hi /fit/. i'm trying to not be a faggot and lurking moar, but in the process i've come with something i can't seem to figure out.
so i've been reading the FAQ. useful shit. and i've come with this

>>You can determine your BMR by multiplying your current weight by 10. For example, if you weigh 180 pounds, then eating 1,800 calories a day would be your BMR.

so i weight 183 calories, meaning my bmr is 1830.
so, then, i go to the nutrient database. i search for a lemonade and it tells me a serving of lemonade has 98kcal. and this is where i get dumb.
i find out one kcal are 1000 calories. if 1kcal is 1000cal, 98kcal are 98000cal. wtf. i know this must be fucking dumb, and i'm sorry. i'm not supposed to be asking such stupid stuff, but i just don't get it.
thanks, /fit/.

you're just massively uninformed. Calories aren't actually used to measure things anymore, what people call calories are actually Kcal.
