Thanks for the suggestions everyone, it was very helpful. So if I am doing this, should I not be concerned with the carbs at all since they are low carbs. Should I try to keep at what MFP has determined for me, or does that not matter?

So let me get this right, in order to "volume up" I would mainly just eat vegetables and not any meats at all? I would need to get my protein from shakes? Do the calories not add up in these protein shakes? What about carbs? I am diabetic so I am trying to watch my carbs.

Started at 230, and my goal is to reach 155. Short term goal is to be able to do a complete sit up in which my chin can touch my knees.

I haven't seen a dramatic weight loss yet, but I am feeling healthier and I am exercising now without being completely out of breath. I also created a healthy version of zuchinni muffins today to have as a snack and it has been two weeks since I have had chocolate.
