how many calories do i burn a day ?
I'm a girl, 17 years old. 5feet and 105 pounds. I calculated my BMR in many websites but they all say less than 1300 and I don't think so, because in these days I feel like i'm burning lots of calories.
I'm active, I workout 5 times a week.
so what's my BMR ?

It really depends on a lot of variables. Your BMR if you did nothing but sit on your butt all day would probably be 1300 or so calories, but even then I think that's probably low. You're young and most likely have a high metabolism so it's probable closer to 2000 calories without exercise. If you workout you can up that number significantly.
The best way to tell is to track exactly how many calories you are eating. If you eat say 1,800 calories a day and still lose weight, your BMR is more than 1,800 calories.
