Acclamating to new diet/lifestyle
So, today I started my "be anal about tracking food intake" and I'm already hungry shortly after eating lunch. The problem is, I'm not sure if I think I'm hungry because I know I'm eating less or if I actually am hungry. So.. how long does it take for the initial shock to go away and for it to become the "new normal"?

setting up mfp
I think I need some help. I'm trying to set up MFP to accommodate a half pound weight loss per week. It says I can eat 1470 kcal per day. That sounds so extremely to me. I thought the average woman should eat about 2000 kcal per day? Won't I be starving myself with this? And btw, how can I change my age? It says I'm 35,…

1400 Calories a day doesn't seem healthy...
So, I'm a bit concerned that it is recommend for me to only have 1400 net calories a day. That number seems quite low for a person who isn't trying to starve oneself. On the Goals page, it lists 1900 cal/day burned from normal daily activity. So, why isn't that taken into account in regards to net calories?

So what is a reasonable goal, anyway?
This is not my first time around losing weight...I've done it before, I can do it again! Only difference is, last time was with no goal, just to lose. This time, though, I'd like to lose some weight by my wedding! It will be in about a year, and since I'm 100+ pounds overweight, I obviously don't expect to have lost all of…
