MFP calorie question

As I lose weight, do I need to adjust my calories on mfp? When I started I was 274 and on track to lose 1 lb a week, my calorie goal was 2400. I am at 267 now and it still says I need to eat 2400. I guess my question is after I lose, let's say 10 lb, will mfp readjust my calorie goals? I just want to make sure I am on track. Thanks.

    MFP will automatically ask if you want to recalculate your goals after losing 10lbs.

    Thanks for answering my question.
  • It dident automaticly ask me. But I just go to settings and then to Update diet/fitness profile. It will then update your calories. :-)

    Yes it will automatically recalculate it, but no also because you have to change your goals in order for it to recalculate!
