Hey everyone so I had a goal to get from 165 to 160 lbs. I'm currently 160.8 lbs and just changed my goal to 155 lbs so why is mfp increasing my daily total calories??? Shouldn't it decrease it??

    What did it increase to?
    Did you change your activity level?
    Did you previously have a custom calorie goal?
    Did you change your loss per week rate?

    I went up by 200 kcal. Didn't change activity level and previously I customized macros but not total calories. And kept same weight loss rate per week!

    I would try getting it to recalculate again, could be a glitch. What was your calorie goal before?

    Was your previous calorie goal below 1500?
