Good Answer! Thanks! You two are great! I got too distracted listening or reading too far into things.. I need to just keep it simple, like what I already know! Dummy me.. live and learn and repeat:)

So are you against the "famous" road map? I'm not buying it.. I gained a good amount of weight.. starting over.. what fun that is!

Calorie defiicit is the way... why are so many people trying to fight it?

Not answering for the OP here, but all the roadmap is really, are directions to an online calculator (fat2fitradio) to work out an intake level that includes, in theory, a deficit - plus explanations of how to over-ride the MFP settings for calorie and macro targets (at least that is my read of it). It is saying the same thing in theory as the article - eat at a caloric deficit. The issue comes when there are factors that mean that the online calculators, for whatever reason, are not representative of an individuals TDEE (which will pretty much be very often when people are eating at a caloric deficit for a while).

You can answer for the OP in this case.
