Replying to myself because after I thought about it some more, it made sense to me to do this right away. I changed my settings on MFP to set my weight goal 7 pounds lower and changed the rate to half a pound per week instead of a pound. That changed my calorie goal to 1690. I am not going to try as hard to hit that every day as I did with it set to 1500, at least not at first. But I will make sure to go over 1500 every day.
