    Thanks again to both of you! It all seems to confusing...I don't get why it tells me I should eat 1700 to 1900 calories based on my calories burned and the deficit on FB and the adjustment given to MFP. Your calculations above make more sense @NancyN795‌ that I should eat 1400 calories per day. I know that the scale can be different from week to week, I just find it works better for me to weigh in weekly otherwise if I do it daily I get obsessed and end up feeling worse depending on results!

    Tomorrow starts a new week so we will keep at it, and see how it goes. Thanks again

    Some math was done wrong that you agreed to following, and no one pointed it out yet.

    2400 - 500 for 1 lb weekly is 1900.

    NOT 1400. That's 2 lbs weekly, and unreasonable with as much as you have to lose.

    Eat your goal, you have no concept of calories really if you can't imagine that merely eating less than you burn is good enough.

    Start from top down from what you are actually doing.

    Don't start from bare minimum and try to build up. Wrong direction.

    Oops. My face is red. I don't know what I was thinking - I know the numbers and the math.
