sugar goal numbers changed

So, with no exercise entered, my sugar goal is usually set to 24g per day....but all of a sudden today it says 45 and i haven't changed anything. Is this some weird glitch? has it happened to anybody else?

Following the recommendations to increase fruit and vegetable intake in the Dietary Guidelines for Americans 2010, and using an average of the sugar found of sample menus provided by the USDA, recommended sugar intake limits have been set to 15% of total calories.
