Hi my name is Jill.
I have a question. As you lose weight does your calorie intake change? Will it change as you enter your weight loss or do you have to change your profile.

Yep!
If you diet incorrectly and lose lean mass youll probably need to drop cals to compensate.
If you diet correctly and maintain lean mass youll probably benefit from eating more.0 -
It will prompt you at a weight loss of 10 pounds I think to change your calorie goals. Seems like it only happens if you enter your weight on the website though, because I usually enter my weight from the mobile app and I don't recall it ever coming up there.0

The site supposedly recalculates with every 10 pounds, but I've heard a lot of people say it doesn't work. You can always go to Settings > Update diet/fitness profile and click the Update Profile button to force it to recalculate.0

Thank you for the info0

It only does it automatically if it is a big 10 lb jump. If you enter incrementally it doesn't. You need to calculate manually.0
