I ignore the calorie adjustment on MFP from fitbit but use the actual calories on fitbit and work out my deficit from there rather than on what MFP tells me to eat. I'm losing steadily.

Now I'm taking it very slowly, I've decided if I can't go up a week I'll redo the week before until I can. I'm determined this time that running won't beat me!

I'm doing 5:2 at the moment (500 cals a day) and eating 500 cals less then my TDEE on the non fast days and the weight is falling off (dieting for an upcoming holiday at the moment). I actually enjoy the fast days and don't feel tired. Once I reach my desired weight I'm going 6:1 for maintenance. The trick I think is not…
