This may be a dumb question, but here goes. Why did my daily calorie intake decrease when I decreased my goal weight?

    When you go into that screen, and save (even if you didn't make any changes) it will force the system to recalculate your calorie amount based on your current weight.

    Aha! Have to remember that tidbit when a plateau hits, thanks!
