    Your weekly deficit should not show 3500! If you hit your target you are on point because MFP already includes your deficit. That would actually mean you have a 7000 calorie deficit, assuming you have it set at 1 lb, which I'm sure you don't because you are on 1200. If your weekly chart says you are at a 3500 deficit on top of MFP's 7000 deficit built in for you... Sounds like you're severely under-eating. How many calories a day do you average?

    It's not 3500, that was just a question I had, to see if it should. But now that you've explained I understand that this is already calculated into it. Last week it was 449 under my weekly goal.
    I eat between 1200-1400 average each day. My diary is public, you are more than welcome to take a peek if you would like.


    Okay. Gotcha! That sounds good. I was thinking you had a big deficit on top of the one built in!
