You only enter the sales price and the cost. Turbo Tax calculates the gain or loss. The proceeds you got from the sale don't matter.
If you have investment sale losses, after you subtract the losses from your gains you can only deduct up to 3,000 per year. You can only deduct up to 3,000 (1,500 MFS) loss per year after any gains you have. So if you have a lot of current gains you can use up the loss. The rest you will have to carryover until it is used up.

Oh I guess they do call it sale proceeds. You didn't see the spot to enter it? You are entering the 1099B here?
You should get a 1099B for sales.
Enter a 1099B under
Federal Taxes Tab
Wages & Income
Then scroll down to Investment Income,
Then Stocks, Mutual Funds, Bonds, Other - click Start or Update

So The money i received at the time of the sale, doesn't get added to income on my taxes because it was from a loss...correct?
