3350/2200 = 1.52 -> 52% more than normal

Just using the numbers you provided

2200 isn't "normal." Both numbers are "normal" at different weights. If you reverse the ratio then you see 2200 is 0.656% of 3350 or that it has...

DECREASED BY A THIRD. WHO COULD HAVE PREDICTED THAT...?

Also, you randomly reused the 2200 you spouted earlier instead of running the calculator again for 150 lbs which would be 2,352. So it's actually even less than that.

Just going by average number based on my local health guidelines.
