Congrats!

Thanks for the advice. It could have been the website I used for TDEE. I didn't imput any exercise in the parameters. I used a different calculator with zero exercise and the TDEE - 20% is 2081. That is closer to the MFP calculation of 1720.

Bump

I add it as an excersize under cardiovascular. That way i can add the time and calories burned.

1720 is my MFP number and I got the TDEE here: http://www.iifym.com/tdee-calculator 80% of that is where i got the 2392

I burn about 500 - 600 calories. I would expect them to be in the same ball park because, on both, I put that I get about zero activity, desk job. If I put my exercise in the TDEE it allows me to have about 2900 calories. I could just be missing how simple this is! :)
