I will just throw this out here as my standard advice:


1. Enter stats into MFP and set for x amount of weight loss.
2. Eat to the number that MFP gives you.
3. get a food scale and weigh all solid foods, and as many liquids as possible.
4. log everything
5. make sure that you are using correct MFP database entries
6. realize that there are no bad foods and that while the majority of foods should come from nutrient dense sources, there is nothing wrong with having pizza, ice cream, cookies, etc, as long as ones micro and macro needs are met.
7. macro setting are typically .85 grams of protein per pound of body weight; .45 grams of fat per pound of body weight; fill in rest with carbs.
8. find a form of exercise that you like and do it < not necessary for weight loss, but is for overall health and body comp.

I've been doing myfitnesspal for 139 days, and have lost 46+ lbs so far. I have another 160 or so pounds to go... welcome to the club, you're not alone!! My best advice is ALWAYS be honest, in what you eat, logging, and no matter what,don't give up.... it takes a bit of changing your habits, but do it for yourself, and don't make reasons why you can't, for someone else's sake. You can be in control of what you eat, and just be sure to eat variety and drink lots of water!! Keep it up!
