<human>: Hi guys, I've been lurking around this subreddit for the better part of last year. On february 1st of this year. I decided to give all I got to my life quest of losing weight one last time. I've lost 9 pounds until now (Yay!). Going to my 3rd week of going to the gym. 

Anyway here is the problem, I've been trying to eat 1,800 kcal a day, I've been logging everything I eat and every workout I do. I try to use whatever calories the machine I use tells me I burned, and I use those to log them to mfp. When I log them I see that I have plenty of calories remaining (according to the app), so when I go home, eat dinner and log it into mfp. I've been noticing that I haven't really been eating 1,800 kcal a day I've been eating more sometimes going into the 2,000s. 

Should I stop logging so I can stay on my limit?

Can you succinctly summarize the text in 1-3 sentences?
<bot>: I see that I have tons of calories left over and I over eat and still see that im in the clear according to the app
