    It will unless you have reached the lowest they will set calories, 1200. As you lose weight your body needs less calories. Along the way you should be reducing the rate of loss. Losing 2 pounds per week is reasonable for someone with 100 pounds to lose, but inappropriate for someone with 20 pounds to lose.
