    Ha ha I like movey as a word.
    Depends how you want exercise really and how much you want to lose?
    Remember it's fat you want to lose not weight

    Welcome. I'm new here also. No specific weight goal for me. I'm more interested in body composition and how I feel. I like how the app helps me track my diet, I figure that's the best starting point to see what I need to work on

    Make sure you eat the right things as you lose as you'll more than likely be losing lean muscle rather than fat. People think because their scales tell them they're losing weight, it most probably isn't fat they're losing.
    You need to keep muscle mass while losing fat. The only way to do that is to keep up protein intake.
