New to MFP

Hey all,
Just started using MFP a few weeks ago when I got my new iPhone! So far I definitely do like it a lot for logging food (best app I've used so far).
Does anyone else notice that it underestimates your TDEE (total daily energy expenditure)? This app suggests ~2200 kcals for a weight loss of ~1 pound a week... whereas it should actually be around 2600.
Anyhow, I'm a nationally accredited personal trainer so feel free to add me jzou91@yahoo.com and send me a message if you ever have any questions!
