    Thanks for the info - not sure what the exact formula is for me but will do some experimenting as to how much and what type of calories are needed.

I have change my meal preferences to 6 times a day and I am making sure I spread my calories out. I'm looking forward to greater results:flowerforyou:

    OK, so newbie with a question....I find that I am having a hard time eating all of my calories in a day (set at 1,400) but I also dont excercise nearly as much as I should...

    so... 1. when I do excercise should I still eat my cals??

    and....2. I am a carb freak! If I am eating within my cals and carbs but slightly over on my protiens am I still in a good weightloss range??

    I am confused because of the NO CARB diets that limit this to next to nothing and am finding MFP to be MUCH too easy compared to all of the other diets I have tried over the last 10 yrs!!!

    Thanks!
    You guys are great!
