Fitbit calories vs MFP
I am getting confused between Fitbit and MFP. Fitbit tells me I burn ~2200 calories a day and MFP says my target caloric intake should be 1600. If I am trying to have a 500 calorie deficit per day (in order to lose 1lb per week), should I be ensuring my deficit is 2200-(calories eaten) = ~500 calories?

Point of timing exercise with FitBit Charge HR?
I have a FitBit Charge HR and am wondering if there is a point of indicating to my FitBit (via the side button) that I am starting and ending a workout? My HR and steps are tracked all day, so it doesn't actually help to increase my calorie burn during that time, does it? Thanks for the advice!

Looking for MFP friends to support me!
Hello! So, I'm starting fresh in 2015. In 2013 I lost a total of 13lbs doing Insanity and logging my food with MFP. I have now gained back 10lbs over time. I always struggle because the foods I love to eat are the ones that are the worst for me. I also tend to be a couch potato during the week days which doesn't help. I'm…

Need a new Beachbody challenge group
I don't really like the Beachbody challenge group my coach runs. I like my coach a lot and how we are all post on Facebook daily, but all the members are moms and I can't relate to them. Does anyone know of a challenge group with 20-somethings I can join?

Reflecting on poor choices
I have been thinking a lot lately about what choices brought me to be at a weight I was not comfortable with. For me it's poor food choices and, though I was working out (occasionally), not having a routine that was strenuous enough to balance out my poor diet. Now I am making healthy food choices and slaving my way…

Calorie intake
I have been aiming to eat 1441 calories a day. I just recalculated my BMR and TDEE based on my weight loss and got a TDEE of 1984. It suggests aiming to eat no less than 20% less of your TDEE which is 1587. Should I be upping my caloric intake each day?

See photos of the soup on my Instagram (@slimnewme). Recipe: 3 cups water 2 large golden potatoes, chopped 2 large leeks, chopped 2 stalks broccoli, chopped 4 cloves of…

1200 calories a day seems low
Hello, I am a 27yo 5'5" tall female who weighs 135. I run for 3mi three times a week, but otherwise I have a desk job, so am sitting a lot. MyFitnessPal calculated that I should only eat 1200 calories a day. That seems REALLY low considering my BMI is 1420.85 and my TDEE is 1954. Can anyone give any advice on how many…
