Calories don't match

My total number of calories in my diary is different than my total number of calories showing on my ticker. I manually entered my calories because I'm doing the TDEE method so how do I go into my settings and make sure the total calories in my diary and ticker match? Thanks!!

    That's weird. It should do. Not sure - I'd go on the technical issues section of the forum and ask there.

    Just had someone in general forum addup all the foods that are shown in the diary, and the calorie count doesn't match what MFP says it is.

    Basic math, by a decent amount. The macros didn't work right either.

    So there are some glitches going on.

    Might add up the calories yourself from your foods - perhaps that amount matches your ticker and not the diary total. Strange as that would be.

    I tried posting in tech thread but said I wasn't authorized to? Lol I have no clue! Now if I have mfp set my calorie goal for me then both calories match.
