Answer to Question 1

Mifflin-St. Jeor (due to obesity):
REE = 10 x Wt (kg) + 6.25 x Ht (cm) - 5 x A (yrs) + 5
REE = 10 x 93.18 kg + 6.25 x 172.72 cm - 5 x 38 yrs + 5
REE = 1826.3  1800 kcal/day
TEE = 1826.3 x 1.3 (PA) = 2374.2  2400 kcal/day or 2300-2500 kcal/day
For weight loss, a 500 kcal/day reduction is needed to obtain a 1 lb/week loss in body weight: 1800-2000 kcal/day

Protein requirements:
0.8-1.0 g/kg (IBW) x 70 kg: = 56-70 g/day

Answer to Question 2

 BMI = 31.2
 IBW = 106 lbs + (6 lbs/1after 5') x 8 = 154 lbs
 IBW = 205 lbs / 154 lbs x 100 = 133
 Mr. Kim is considered obese.
