Hello, I have been doing MFP a little over a month now and I've only lost three pounds! I set my goal to lose 1 1/2 pounds a week and it set my calories to 1290 a day. Is this too low and possibly the reason why I'm not seeing the weight come off? I try to work out 2-3 days a week, but I'm not seeing anymore results. It's very frustrating and I just feel like giving up....but I really do want to lose 40 pounds, I just dont know what I need to do. Any help would be greatly appreciated....thanks!!

    hi - had a similar experience. I found it worked better when i aimed for 2 pounds pw (began to lose regularly and consistently) and didn't eat my exercise calories. Keep trying, don't give up
