    hmmm.... it sounds like the 1200 is with a goal of 2lb/week, and 1650 is a goal of 1lb per week. At least that's pretty much what mine changes to when I change my goals around. Not sure how the ft40 is calculating it

    my MFP says 1750 to maintain weight... i would think 1650 is to maintain you weight but net 1200 to lose weight.....
