And recently I started using MyFitnessPal and I’m wondering if it’s going into a dangerous territory. I’m just older now and my metabolism is slower and you can only lose weight if you have a calorie deficit.

How do I achieve my goals without heading into ED territory?

I think keeping perspective and moderation is the key— i don’t think calorie tracking is inherently bad, since we’re all so out of touch with how much food we really should have, portion sizes, etc. just don’t become obsessed over it and restrict yourself to the point of malnutrition. Best of luck with everything!
