did you determine your rmr? im curious how the measured value compares to say if you did the calculation.

Good question!

The bodpod gave me an RMR of only 1360 kcal. That is lower than the value than I’ve gotten from any online calculator

For example:

This site gives me and RMR of 1,488

This one gives me 1541

This one gives me 1531

I guess the lesson to be learned here is that online calculators will give you a ballpark figure but if you want something more accurate, get tested by a professional in a lab.
