    First, I think your weight was 150s-160s?. You should not be set to lose 1.5 lbs. per week. Unless you are 5'0 or less the most you should lose is 40-50 lbs. which will not sustain 1.5. Lbs. easily.

    I think mfp is very easy. What's confusing about? Just eat the calories it tells you to eat.

    You'd think, right? And still people don't eat exercise calories. Baffles me a little.

    OP, your 500 calories of exercise a day are probably inflated, so I'd eat half back if you decide to go with MFP. I liked TDEE because adding exercise was annoying and I never knew how much I burned.

    I like NEAT as my exercise is not consistent enough to use TDEE. Comes with longer runs getting longer training for a 1/2 marathon.
