Hi there. I’ve been updating my losses on MFP for the past few months and it’s been reducing my a llowed calories by around 20 cals but today, it increased them by 200! Is this a bug?

Did you run the guided setup again just to make sure the calories are not 'stuck'? Did you make a typo with your weight? Have you added a fitness tracker and those extra calories are due to your activities?

Weirdly went onto the website and it had me down as wanting to lose 1/2 lb per week, even though on the app it says 1lb! Might log it as an issue. Thanks both!

Mine increased my calories by 230 today. Have not changed goal. Tried inputting different weight goal, didn't work. Tried uninstalling reinstalling, didnt work. Still says I should eat 230 calories more. Tried help, won't let me post. Hope they fix app soon!!
