howdy! i was just researching for how people were entering their calorie burn on mfp (there's no dedicated p90x entry) and saw your post. i'm about to start the 'lean' program this morning. i'm already doing fine calorie-intake wise, but my workouts needed a push. anyway, i might be starting too soon for your purposes, but…
