doing the TDEE method
yesterday I figured out my TDEE and a link someone shared showed how to customize your day to reflect that method, so I did, and I was wondering should I still add excersize? someone explained it but a lot of this is still really confusing and i'm not sure im doing it right.

my TDEE is different from MFP
I just did the TDEE thing people talk about on here, and its most definitely not the same as MFPs calculations. MFP was more calories for the same loss can anyone explain?

I packed too big a lunch for my 8 hour shift and ended up eating too much... I didn't know what to do with leftover ground beef from a container, so I made taco meat, and had THREE tacos in addition to my cheeseburger. next time, just two tacos? anyone have any ideas for side dishes that go with cheeseburgers, tacos?…

Measuring ounces in meat
I don't have a food scale and I tried putting chicken drumsticks in those clear ounces measuring cups but they don't fit. Is the only option to get a food scale? I'm pretty sure what I ate was under a pound and I used googles pounds to ounces converter.

losing weight the right way
just glad i found this site, and did some research because last year and every year before it i thought the real way to lose weight was to excersize as much as possible. little did i know most of it was diet, 80% of it. anyone else used to believe that?

fruit has no points in ww, it does here?
when i did weight watchers fruit and veggies were given 0 points but i figure you have to add them here can someone explain this? i'm tempted to adopt their policy on mfp, and its not like i'm eating 14 apples a day and abusing that system, try 2 apples a day, 3 tops. despite that i'm going to start counting them on mfp,…

1st month using mfp every day
i am so very surprised its taken kind of all morning to understand whats going on. before i would use MFP but sporadically, and was still convinced all you needed to do was work out till your half dead and can't lift a finger at your job cause your so tired. boy was i wrong!! its also a bad idea anyways. anyways so i…

on the food seach, it's measured in "1 cup" and that's about it, thing is i don't really measure how much egg yolk, or the ingredients is this a fair measurement for an omellete? there was an option for a 3 egg ham and cheese omelette with an option for how many eggs is in it but its not there anymore. its not far off…

anyone else think losing weight
was just excersizing MORE? i didn't know what fat loss really meant, until i saw the r/fitness reddit. otherwise i was going to work out every day until i was dead and just eat whatever. maybe i knew in the back of my mind it was a calorie deficit, but i just kind of winged it blindly, or made up my own diet/regimen. more…

question about this site
so when i started using this, i didn't know how to work with the "goals" part of it, making your goal, because i'd set it to "lose 1 lbs a week" and then i'd eat UNDER that, the thing is i just found out my TDEE, and it turns out...well this site subtracts and does the math for you. now, it may be christmas post food funk,…

weight watchers
WW said fruit and vegetables don't have points. sometimes i don't even count them on here, SOMETIMES i know this isn't weight watchers but still. and really those don't have much calories anyways.

about deli meat
they cut it way too thin, i feel i could do a better job (and not because i work in the meat department). does anyone buy there own and cut it? or should i just ask for them to cut the slices really thick, also those packaged ones at kroger are so so so thin, what am i doing.
