I'm sorry ... I'm a little confused. Why would we feed someone only 10-20kcal/kg/ a day if they have a low weight? For example if someone weighed in at 78lbs or around 35kg with the equation of 10-20 kcal/kg a day would only have them eating 350-700 calories which is too low don't you think ?Don't understand ? can someone explain ?
