Hoping someone can help me. Pondering on which plan I should be following. My sister in law loves MFP but I'm not so keen on it (a few of my foods I've entered have had wrong calorie details). I do like the Fatsecret app though and find it easy to use and accurate for foods. The only problem as far as I'm aware is the amount of calories this app recommends I should have daily if I want to lose weight - 2000. After following the plan strictly - even going under by a few hundred points some days I've hardly lost anything. Being honest as well I am a big eater and have been eating well over 2000 calories a day prior to wanting to tackle my weight, even so 2000 still seems a lot to me. So I downloaded MFP and the daily allowance is 1480. No wonder I'm not loosing weight!!! Does 1480 sound about right? I'm 14st7 and 5ft4. I would like to have less calories during the week and have more to use over a weekend but not sure if I should trust this allowance as being accurate for my height and weight. Its just so different to what the other app recommends plus I'm also suspecting my calories would reduce for each stone???? Help!!!
