    You are probably hitting one of the limits. 1500 calories/day min for men. 1000 calorie deficit/day max for all.

    What are you adjusting to and from?

    To get my calories to adjust I always have to reset my goal and then set it back to what I want.

    For example, I'm set at half a lb per week, every ten lbs or so, I go to the goal tab, change it to 1 lb per week, and then back to half. It then lowers my calories.

    I hope that made sense.
