Can anybody tell me why my calories allowed are dropping? I haven't changed my settings. Yesterday I was allowed 1460, today 1450 and tomorrow only 1210. Any ideas?

    Do you have a fitbit or some other step counter/activity monitor linked to your MFP account? Or have you logged any exercise yesterday & today?

    My guess is 1210 is your standard "base" calories that MFP has allotted you, and you've earned some exercise/activity calories yesterday and today.

    No, nothing linked. The number I'm looking at is the first number at the top on the left. My base number. It just doesn't make any sense. Maybe it will right itself. Thanks!

    Can you open your diary?
    If you have a smart phone, it may be linked without you knowing it.

    Have you changed anything? Sometimes if I update my weight, even if I update it in my pedometer app, or something else, it resets/changes my mfp base calories from where I've manually set it.

    It has somehow righted itself in the last few minutes. Thanks everybody for responding.
