I do try to lift a couple days per week as my schedule allows.

I try to be accurate when food logging. I will measure what I can and try to be generous when estimating amounts.

So I just set my goal in MFP using their guided setting and then make sure I net the calories MFP suggests and it will adjust for my fitbit activity?

I found that Fitbit has me at 2434 estimated calories burned. So I should change my MFP calorie goal to 1934? What do I do then if I end up jogging or lifting later? Do I still just try to net the 1934? Thanks for your help

OK. Thanks for clarifying and congrats on the weight loss. Very impressive.

I also started jogging a few weeks ago using the Couch to 5K. I have never been a runner and thought it would be a great way to get my exercise. I have been noticing that I haven't been losing weight even though I am having a calorie deficit of about 500 calories each day and eating back my exercise calories. Is it…

Do you just mean the weight goals in both should be the same? I notice that I have my fitbit plan which sets the calories based on activity for the day and MFP which just sets it at a specific calorie goal. I see that you can put in a specific calorie goal in fitbit.

Could someone take a look at my diary and let me know why I wouldn't be losing?
-
I set my goals based on the 500 deficit from my average daily calories burned. They are about the same as MFP's setting.

Thanks for posting this. I was a little confused with the fitbit section. I use a fitbit, but was not sure where exactly I should put my fitbit numbers. Could you explain a little more? Thanks
