    Maybe you have lost too much weight to loose 2lbs a week healthy and MFP automatically changed it to 1.5lb a week? Check your 'Goals' section

    They change it for a few reasons. Age if you got older, if you changed your exercise habits lately. When you first begin they ask how active you are. Have you changed that lately.?

    Same thing happened to me, I couldn't figure it out until I realized it had added about 300 calories from exercise, putting me at 1500 calories total. So if you exercised that's what happened. Hope this helped! :)
