That sounds like the Basal Metabolic Rate (BMR) as opposed to the TDEE (Total Daily Energy Expenditure).
Some people use BMR as a target for losing weight, but BMR is sort of like how much energy you'd burn being in a coma. TDEE (1.2 x BMR, ish) would include daily activities like walking around, so is generally more appropriate.
