Questions My New Members Have That I Bet You're Wondering About

Is it ok to eat below my calorie goals?  Should I go over my calories to hit my protein? The scale isn't moving! Help before I get discouraged. I'm worried I'm going to be hungry. My challenge is that weighing, measuring, tracking and pre-planning everything seems too time consuming. How do I handle eating out when the calories aren't in My Fitness Pal?
