Exercise causing weight gain
I was tracking on mfp for all of last month and I lost 15 lbs (now 215) so I decided to take it a step further and start incorporating some strength exercise and cardio to get to my goal faster but after the first week I gained 3 lbs.

Usefulness of relative measures from a scale that measures body fat?
I know absolute measurements from a scale that also measures body fat are not accurate. But what about the relative measurements? If the scale shows body fat trending down over time when weight stays stable, then does this mean fat is being lost or could other factors be at play?

Calories in vs calories out
MFP starts me at 1200 calories.but with everyday activity and exercise I burn between 2700-3200 calories a day based on my fitbit. It is linked to MFP and so it is telling me to eat like 2400 calories a day is that correct? And how do you eat that much in a day I am having a hard time getting 2000 in.

Why did my allowable calories go down?
I just updated my goals. Meaning, I didn't change anything except my current weight and it lowered my calorie intake by 80 calories. I assume it has something to do with the fact that the less you weight the less calories you need. But I would like to know for sure. Anyone know?
