Ah right, now that makes sense! So according to MFP now, I have 90 cals left for the day (taking estimated steps into account) so I will not eat those final calories, as I'm going out tonight but won't be doing much in the way of exercise. Thanks for your help!! Appreciated!

It's Fitbit Flex. Not sure what HR is?

Thanks! Yes, I have it sent to sedentary and I have enabled neg cal. One final question though! In MFP today, it says I've walked 4819 steps and according to MFP, that's worth 219 calories. That feels like a LOT of extra cals for what has not been a particularly active day. I haven't done any dedicated exercise yet, just…

Thanks for all the replies! This morning Fitbit and MFP seem to be talking to each other. Sorry for appearing dim, but should negative calories adjustment be enabled or disabled?

Oh, that's all very helpful, thank you. I think I will go on what MFP says. Far better to under-estimate than over! :)

Ok, that helps...thank you! I think I'll stick with my intake at 1200 cals a day and if I want more than that, I'll take from my exercise allowance. Thanks for your help! :)

I think it'll get easier! But I am eating a lot of protein. For lunch I'm eating a wrap with a whole tin of tuna (and lots of very low fat Mayo) and some chopped celery. The chewing of the celery means I eat slower and am truly stuffed. Tonight I've had a HUGE chicken and bacon salad, bulked out with veggies, tomatoes,…

Thanks guys...I may have mixed up BMR and TDEE (brain probably got muddled on it all!). But I will look at the fat to fit calculator again and see what it tells me! Thank you so much. :)

I've just added you as a friend. Shorty here too (5.1) and the same, about 35lbs to shift. :) I'm doing calorie control, with some healthy walks every day. :)
