I get that. She did ask for my help. Was really just trying get any ideas on how to figure out macros. I understand that they will need to be adjusted after trial and error. Just trying to help a person who is struggling but thanks for your attempt at helping!

I'll have her try it but I feel that MFP isn't always as accurate

Thanks!!

Thanks again! So I started around 246 lbs and got down to 187 lbs. I've been stuck at that weight for maybe 2 months now. I've been eating 2100 calories to get there. I'm wanting to get to 175 to see how I feel. So are you saying that I should be able to stay at 2100 to get to 175? I'm not sure if I have to revisit my…

AH Ok, I was assuming that I should of put the weight I want to be at, at the end. So I should of done 191-187, hypothetically

So I might have misunderstood you. I was heavier and was losing 1lb a week at 2100 calories a day. Now I'm stuck at an average of 187. I may have plugged the numbers in wrong or just misunderstood what you were saying

@AnnPT77 So I did 186.8-175=11.8. 11.8/4=2.95 2.95*3500=10325 10325/7=1475 Does this seem right to you? Also, if I just want to lose a pound a week, can I just simply manipulate this equation to do so? Is that ok?

Yeah this is all good info, thank you everybody. I just feel like going below 1800 calories a day is getting really low.
-
Thanks! I'll look more into this.

Just been maintaining. Haven't put in new stats. I'm weighing on a scale and no I don't eat those back. I just stick to the 2100 a day.

I was losing 1lb a week once I was in the deficit for a while, was losing more at first.

I'm around 5'8", 5'9" after the chiropractor lol, I've been sticking around 188lbs. I'm not sure how big my deficit is because I never did maintenance, went straight into a deficit. I've been at this deficit for probably 10 to 12 months. I have taken small breaks which is probably the diet break you're referring to. How…
