Understanding MFP app

[Gottodothis]

Hi Everyone,

Even though I have used this app since October, today I have been informed doing it wrong.

Gym manager set it at 1200 cals (was 10st 3lb, bmi 24, height 5ft). Then steps work out an extra 300 cals on a good day.

I have not been including my gym workouts thinking that it would count for my 500 cal deficiate. Many a time the remaining cals states 100 cals left.

But a trainer mentioned that the 500 cals def has already been removed so therefore not eating enough (everything bare my tummy is nearly gone but tummy not moving)

Is he correct?

Thanks and good luck to all

Wendy
