Thank you!! Both you guys were very helpful! Makes me not wanna google TDEE calculators anymore LOL!

While I have you here what do you suggest my Macros be set at I was playing around and don't know how to reset it from the beginning lol

Ok phew I know so confusing I don't have a lot to lose but I just wasn't seeing any results and it was so frustrating your the best you've been so much help I really appreciate it!!

Lol oh darn sorry okay so I don't have to worry about if I'm taking in the right amount it's done for me now the exercise calories say I'm allowed 1,200 and I eat 1,300 but I have 400 exercise points that will be ok because that 400 exercise points made up for that additional 100 calories I ate...sorry if I sound like a 5…

Say that for example is what I ate for the day is that enough how do I know I'm creating a 500 calorie deficit

See it's still confusing for me lol I don't know why

So if I have like 500 exercise calories I should use like 250?

Ok so I should just stick to the 1,200 MFP had set for me and log in my cardio?

Yes

I'm eating 1,200 calories (what my MFP says) and I am working out burning at least 250 calories

Haha no I wish it was that easy I went on a few website and I am just really confused about the whole TDEE process like I'm usually good with numbers but when it comes to calories and weight I don't want to be gaining that's why I put my numbers there for someone to do the work for me lol because if I do it I'll feel like…

Sorry I ment to type a week*

Thank you everyone for the help I really appreciate it!! I've been a little down I weighed 154 on 14th of March at the end of the week I weighed 150 I got excited but couldn't stay away from the scale and the next few days I was gaining a pound back and once again another pound so it's been frustrating but now I know what…

Okay yes I did notice that I was getting exercise points I will only log in what info at the gym such like that now how do I know I'm not eating more then what it says is available I should just eat what I was originally given which would be the start of the day which was like 1,500? Sorry if that sounds stupid I just want…

Ok so I guess what I have in my set up on MFP is what I should go by I shouldn't do anything else or any other calculators to determine what I should be doing

Okay so at first I put in my profile I wanted to lose 2 pounds a week my current weight right now is 152 using the information your provided me I put in 1 pound a week and my calorie intake on MFP went up to 1,500 which is about what my BMR calculated my BMR is 1,457 what do you think I should burn when I go to the gym…
