This is a big deficit with the program. I track my own calories and simply want to enter them in my diary. Is that not an option?

    You can enter your calories burned under Exercise on the app and/or the website.

    Exactly this. Mfp is set up to easily add exercise and calories. You can even make up your own exercises and manually add calories, or find existing ones and either keep the calories it give you, or change the calories to what you want.

    You can also use "quick add calories" under Quick tools to enter negative numbers...
