Quick TDEE Question (I promise)

I'm using the TDEE calculator on scooby's workshop and it said to recalculate after losing 5 pounds. Recalculated today and it gave me MORE calories. Is that right? I can see that maybe my metabolism increased so I can eat more, but it just seems off to increase my calorie intake to keep losing weight.

    You probably entered the information wrong at one point or another. Or changed your activity level.

    I second that you have entered incorrect info at some point, whether originally or today. Check everything and try again! :wink:

    Nope, double checked my numbers,still higher than what I've been doing for the last three weeks (by about 200 calories). Maybe off when I set it orignially? Either way, I'm not losing at a super fast rate or anything so should I just keep it where I had it, or go ahead and up my intake?
