  • It's important to me to have my goal at 1640 rather than 1200 because I want to make sure I hit my macro nutrient goals. I also would like to be able to log exercise so I can see how much I burn -- I just wish it didn't automatically feed into my "remaining calories" bin. Perhaps a fix for a future MFP update. Thanks to…
  • I like option 2, but it's super annoying that MFP tells me that I'm not at my "goal" just because I exercised. I wish you could tell MFP to acknowledge that I want to EAT 1640 but that I want to let the exercise create a deficit. (I do custom goals because I want to adjust the % of protein/fat/fiber/etc.)
  • Do you trust the TDEE calculator here: http://www.fitnessfrog.com/calculators/tdee-calculator.html? I work out for about an hour, six days per week. That put my TDEE at 2371. Were I to create a 500 calorie deficit from that, I'd be at 1871 which sounds like a lot more fun than 1647 (which is my BMR). My max deficit is 856…
  • Specifically, what should my "goal" be? I set it at 1640 because that's what my RMR is, but then when I exercised 500 calories, my tracker started to tell me that I had to eat 500 more calories. Confusing!!
