I'm sorry...what is TDEE? I will google that...

Yes I am working on being very accountable...I just am a bit frustrated on picking a number of calories so I can commence with taking off weight. My attitude is great and I am highly motivated...just need that magical number to hit every day to ensure I approach this correctly.

I input my age and weight on the elliptical machine. for strength training I input the reps and sets...and somehow magically MFP comes up with extra food calories?

Thanks for that reply...I'm scarily accurate about recording ..borderline neurotic (ha) so I am wondering since I do a lot of exercise (I "earned" 700 calories today) if perhaps my calorie count is too low and I'm throwing myself into "starvation mode"...I'm pretty tall...but yeah I guess just do 1420 and not eat the…

wow that's a lot of info but thank you! I have used MFP to determine my caloric needs and it seems to low (1420). I have mostly been using 1420 as my daily goal but in two weeks I have not lost anything. I am working out. I guess I will try another two weeks on 1420. It is trying my patience. thanks again
