    Its the percentage of calories that you're eating. You can set it manually in MFP. So 60% of your calories come from protein, 25% from carb, 15% from fat. I like the ratio 50% carb, 25% fat, 25% protein, it works for me.

    I'd definitely suggest eating more. Once you've gotten to the point that we're both at, 1200ish calories won't cut it anymore, esp with that workout schedule. Try gradually upping your calories. The 4 lbs you put on is just an adjustment by your body, probably water retention and the extra food "in your system". Keep at it and the scale should respond after a week or two. But eating more is definitely what you need.
