calories difference

Trishfitz78

Hi
My calorie allowance is 1500 but if I click "view diary" from my news feed, its only 1200.
Any suggestions?
Ive tried logging out and back in again.
Thanks!

Hi there. I was struggling with this issue yesterday and I'm still getting used to how MFP calculates calorie intake amounts. I found this thread for you that may help. (I would try explaining it, but I'd be afraid of getting something wrong). I hope this helps you. https://community.myfitnesspal.com/en/discussion/10168300/tdee

Here's another post. It's rather long, but filled with great information. http://community.myfitnesspal.com/en/discussion/1080242/a-guide-to-get-you-started-on-your-path-to-sexypants

I think I got the second link I just shared wrong. Disregard. I'm going to find it again and repost.

I think this is it. If the link takes to a page other than page 1, go back to page 1. It's a post from "sidesteel." Very, very helpful information. There are links within this post that you might also find helpful. http://community.myfitnesspal.com/en/discussion/1080242/a-guide-to-get-you-started-on-your-path-to-sexypants/p1
