Logging ChaLEAN Extreme Strength days

I am starting ChaLEAN Extreme in a few weeks and I have read that a HRM is not accurate for strength training. How would I log the strength days? I am at a 1200 net and I do not want to go too far under that by not logging accurately. I know in the booklet it has recommendations and states that for someone in my weight range I should eat 1300 calories during the plan to lose weight but it does not say how much one would lose.

I am 5'1 and 139 lbs. My goal is 120 lbs. I plan on doing three days of cardio during the program as well. I like the MFP method rather than the TDEE method since my days vary with how much I will be burning during my workouts and even my normal daily activity.
