So I'm 3 weeks in on MFP and things are going great! 14 pounds down! I weighed in every Wednesday so far... but I noticed my calories haven't gone down from losing weight? I thought that was funny... cause I've been eating the same 1760 calories a day for 3 weeks now.. I thought it was automatic. So I googled it and saw they suggest you update your info every 10 pounds? So I went ahead into my settings and changed my weight to what I currently am on week 3. (1680 calories now) and now all of my diary info says I'm over my calories for all the days... that doesn't seem right. :( Did I do something wrong or mess something up?

    When you update your stats or macros or anything, it unfortunately changes previous days as well. Don't worry about it.

    When you first start out you may see some big losses, partially water weight. Going forward, you should see your rate of loss slow down to a more reasonable rate. If it doesn't, you should eat more.

    Congrats on your successful start and good luck!

    You ate 1760 cals, then reduced your goal... so now 1760 is more than your goal...

    Doesn't matter though, does it?
