Simple question…

so I have another post on here as well but perhaps the more simple question is… If I set up my profile correctly saying I want to lose a pound and a half a week and what my goal weight is, is MFP calculating all of that together with my exercise and the end result/goal being 0 at the end?

    Yep, you've got it!

    Just know that MFP tends to overestimate calorie burns for exercise, so you might want to leave 25 - 50% of your exercise calories over at the end of the day.
