Goal weight and calorie reduction

raaeft1

Whenever I lose weight and update my goal using the customized options, the calories allowed to me decrease. Why is this so?I do not understand.
Or should I log in the weights instead of updating the goals?

Because one factor that effects your caloric allowance is your weight. If you weight less, you aren't allowed to eat as much. Other factors that effects your allawance are: height, age, gender and activity level.

Lighter people burn less calories. Less mass to move around = less energy required to move it. But I wouldn't change your goals unless you suddenly stop losing weight eating what you are eating....

I agree with this. I don't mess with my goals. Just do the check-in. I'd only re-evaluate the goals if my calorie goal wasn't working for weight loss.
