Yes that's kind of along the lines of what I was thinking it might be happening at this point. Since I already had some amount of experience in weight training I figured my muscle memory was kicking in and I could be having lean mass gains and losing some fat at the same time in this initial phase.

Im 202lbs and MFP says I should eat 1480cals for me to lose 1.65lb a week and also says I should lose 4lbs by June 10th which sounds ridiculous to me and the math doesnt even add up.

If I use BMR formula and multiply it by 1.55x (moderate exercise/sports 3-5 days/week) I'd be at 3000 cals/day. So there's apparently still an 800 cals difference here which should be enough to lose at least something.

Yes, my scale is digital and it's pretty much brand new (like 1 month old) and the weights seem sound to me. I'm training 6 times a week so I just eat 2200 cals 7 days a week even though the rest day I should eat like 200-300 cals less but I just don't bother. I'm not tracking calories burned through exercise but I assume…
