It's rough, isn't it?? Makes little sense to me. Thanks for all the help, maybe a break is what I need. And a purposeful break, so I don't feel guilty the whole time.

Are you adding in the 800+ as exercise, or just adjusting your basic everyday activities level so MFP can come up with your daily calorie intake recommendation? The latter is what I'd recommend, and then anything above and beyond your everyday activities, like a run or a workout class, could be entered in as exercise and…

I travel a lot too.
