Suggested TDEE seems a bit high. (OBESE)

Background...

5’7”, sedentary (desk job, about 11 hours spent sitting per day during the week due to a long commute), 410lbs, 27 y.o.

According to this, my maintenance calories are 3352 per day, which seems high to me.

Has anyone else had a situation where their actual TDEE was wildly different from what the calculator says? I’m trying to set my calorie target (I was doing keto and IF, but I’m trying to switch to something more sustainable) and I’m worried about setting it too high or too low.

Any help you can provide would be appreciated

Edit: I’m not planning to eat 3352 calories a day. I’m tying to lose a considerable amount of weight (goal weight is 200 for now, though it’ll likely go below that based on my height.)
