When you begin to lose weight does MFP automatically update your profile and reduce your goal calories? Or do you have to update your profile and change your settings yourself?

    Every so often when you register a significant loss, it will prompt you to reconfigure your calories.

    I believe MFP will automatically adjust your goals every 10 pounds or so. Though, I manually change mine since I've been cycling/zig-zagging my calories lately. You can change them anytime you want.

    Maybe it's just me, but MFP automatically changes my recommended calorie with every pound lost. I lost 1 pound last week and my calorie setting dropped 10 cals.
