It's all under settings, then diet profile. But IDK if there is a way to manually put in a goal that is lower than what MFP calculates based on the set variables you can enter (activity level, desired loss rate).

It's totally possible - I've got my calories set to 800, for example.

When I type in "egg" I see an option that is *Protein-Egg
I'd pick that one.

It does that for everyone....your calorie goal will never be accurate after having had bariatric surgery. I have mine set on sedentary and an aggressive loss, so it's as low as possible, and it's still over 1300. You will also always get a warning that you are eating too little and something about starvation mode. Ignore it.
Don't worry about that aspect of MFP--use it for the tracking.
