Simplified weight loss at 1lb a week: Calories_out - Calories_in = 500
I believe you meant to say 1lb a week represents ~3500 calories which equates to a reduction of 500 calories each day will result in a 1 lb weight loss each week.
I I too loved myfitnesspal and its a great way of motivating yourself. Nothing like seeing numbers to tell you if your doing the right things. I particularly loved the tracking over time represented as graph; I found this very motivating.
Great advice fmracing.
