Hi, ive just joined MFP a few weeks ago and wanted to take it serious from the start to lose around 2 stone over the next 4-6 months. Ive had a nutritionalist give me some advice and a plan and I also take pro-10 protein supplements 3x a day, first thing, after training then before bed.
Just a question for anyone who might be able to help - do i add my protein to the MFP when i take it or just add food? My aim is 1760 calories a day but 3x shakes takes me way over the limits after meals.........
Anyones advice would be much appreciated,
Cheers

you need to add all calories to MFP. You may want to consider finding a lower calorie shake or cutting out 1 or 2 shakes, etc.0

Change your protein ratio. Mine is set to 30% of my calories. Go to Goals then custom0

I would try to incorporate more protein into your foods so you don't go over on calories due to the shakes. Or you have to decrease the food by eating lower calorie options.0

Thanks very much guys and girls,
Ive changed the protein in my personal settings and will incorporate the protein intake into my calorie count.
Cheers
