Am I eating enough?
Due to menopause I gained 10 pounds that I want to lose; so I joined MFP to learn how to eat healthier and hopefully lose those 10 pounds.

TDEE vs goal calories?
My goal calories are 1200 - I usually earn 300 extra from excercise. Normally I eat around 1400 or 1500 calories less my exercise calories equals a net of 1100 or 1200.

Always go over on my sugar and protein!
I seem to do good with calories and everything except the sugar and protein. I always go over on sugar but it is all from fruit except for the balsamic I have on my lunch salad. So is it a bad thing I am going over? Also, I seem to always go over on my protein because of egg, yogurt, cottage cheese and salmon. Is that bad?

MFP vs WW

Too much protein?

Also, my sugar gets a little high - biggest contributors to sugar are my daily apple and balsamic vinegar on my lunch salad.
