You start by entering your current statistics in the MFP diet/fitness settings page, including the weight you'd like to reach. MFP will calculate your suggested daily calorie intake to achieve this.

Enter your goals and the site calculates your deficit. Eat until the bottom of your FOOD page reads zero.
