So F'ing FRUSTRATED!
So I have had weight issues my entire adult life. I was a typical yo-yo dieter, never super overweight but never thing either (always around a 12) but if I needed to drop weight for any reason I could do it.

On track with my calories but....
I have been on MFP for almost 2 weeks and have noticed some change but I have a question. I usually come in on target with my calories but I've been having trouble getting my breakdown (protein, fat, carbs) right. Will this drastically affect my weight loss?
