Random change in calorie goal?

Today my calorie goal was randomly dropped by 50 cals a day? I did the think where I "fixed" my starting weight but I changed it to go up a half lb because I wanted in on a whole pound and that was a more accurate number anyway. I haven't updated my weight loss in 10 days. Why did this happen?

    Depending on which part of the program you used to update your starting weight, MFP will recalculate your goals.

    You most likely used the Progress area of the app or Goals area of the Web version. Both of those areas, to my recollection, warn you that continuing will recalculate your goals if you use them.
