    It's because MFP has recalculated at your current weight, so the new figures would be more accurate.

    It happened to me a couple of weeks ago & I was so disappointed! From what I remember, from the last time I used MFP, it will prompt us to recalculate each time we lose a certain number of pounds. Well done on the 6lb :)

    Yep, as you lose, your caloric allotment will change.

    Remember that the 1440 is just your base. You still get to earn more through exercise :smiley:
