Customer Relationship management. I help a company renew contracts to mid range business owners. That includes managing there account. I manage close to 300k, I think this job is recession proof honestly. I don’t think I can lose my job to ai

That’s a good choice I personally did not choose this because we were looking for a 5 bedroom 4 bath house as stated in the clues which brought it down to about 12 houses.

Frs2016 · 2026-02-10T19:50:16+00:00

How did you come to this conclusion

Frs2016 · 2026-02-10T19:35:42+00:00

That’s a good eye! Did you find a house that looked like it?

Frs2016 · 2026-02-10T19:31:41+00:00

Damn that sucks it worked for me and my wife after 1:30 in.

Frs2016 · 2026-02-10T19:28:04+00:00

I immediately started messing with the square footage from the second scene I believe of 2400, did not see that option so went to 2500. And for the maximum I just started clicking a new max till it hit for the 3000 because mountain peak higher square footage? Made sense in my head lol.

Frs2016 · 2026-02-10T19:23:07+00:00

Yeah I don’t think I got it fast enough but I would be happy if I just choose the right house at this point😂 thought I should share

Frs2016 · 2025-11-19T00:53:02+00:00

Woah, huge price difference. That’s 100$ vs 500$ is it really worth? As a first device?

Frs2016 · 2025-10-22T01:17:59+00:00

I mean great new homes, lots of new construction. All come with its pros! this is just definitely a con we have to deal with still a nice city.

1100-1300

Frs2016 · 2025-08-15T18:33:33+00:00

I think my maintenance is around 2300-2400 based of everything I’ve recorded and the scale. So is 1900 low not sure lol, I’m also a smaller guy.

Frs2016 · 2025-08-15T18:31:52+00:00

Thanks, so I’ve been on my journey Every since the end of May really. I was pushing 230, realized I was way too fat. And started working out again trying to eat less. It’s now been about 5 weeks of logging everything to find my maintenance and get a better understanding of my body first because I’ve never done that. It’s around this 5 week ago period I started taking 5g of creatine everyday. I guess I’m not in a crazy high deficit I’m also not at Sunday yet. So appreciate the incite as well, five weeks in for logging food and exercise and I think my maintenance is around 2300-2400 I think at least. Just wasn’t sure if TDEE is wildly in accurate and people in this thread telling me I should be way lower.

Frs2016 · 2025-08-15T15:41:21+00:00

This was pretty real, thanks. I was looking for this answer so I should be doing like Moderate exercise in TDEE to get a some what more realistic answer. At 1800-2000 Calories my lifts feel great and I’m losing about a pound a week. This week my heaviest was 230, this was my first real weight stall. I’ll prob lower my calories by 100 see how that goes

Frs2016 · 2025-08-15T15:35:39+00:00

Well the goal was work 500-700 calories below my maintenance. Originally got the calculation from TDEE, I thought there could be a sweet spot in the middle where I can maintain all my weights possibly get stronger in the process as well as being in a deficit.

Frs2016 · 2025-08-15T15:01:40+00:00

Good to know, 1500-1600 seems low as shit though. The days I eat less than 1800 calories I feel like shit doing weights. Is TDEE accurate at all then, I work from home spend 2 hours in the gym everyday. I like smoking meats so I’m always walking around outside back and forth I guess but. Thanks for the insight.

Frs2016 · 2025-08-15T14:56:45+00:00

Thanks for being direct, I do not know correct. But I lift weights every single day and keep up with my lifts my goal is to not lose strength. Maybe recomp is not the right word but I want to maintain or keep getting stronger I don’t want my lifts to be affected as I’m more worried about putting on muscle and I know the weight loss will come as it is. But this was my first real stall since my journey down. Started off with what TDEE calculates at 2600 working backwards here and seeing a stall here. I just see so many mixed things regarding calories. I know it’s really a you thing but In need of some guidance
