Hi,any advice appreciated .I am confused!My food intake goal is 1210 cals daily to loose approx 2lb a week.(lost 16lb up to date!:-) I exercise (walking)daily which adds more cals to my daily goal!do i need to eat the added cals or just still stick to the 1210cals?Because when finishing the food diary for the day it always says you are below your daily intake.:-/

    MFP is designed to eat your calories back. Some here only eat 50% of them back. It all depends on how accurate you are with calorie counting.
