does MFP ask you to change your calorie goal after a certain loss or not? I've lost 22 pounds and haven't been asked to lower my calories, however when I put in my data today and wanted to see about my goals, it took off almost 200cals a day and now it seems I can't change it back... a bit worried, about ending up eating to little...

any experience with that?

    It should prompt you to change it but if it doesn't you can manually go in and change your calorie goal.

    It will go down as you lose weight. Another thing to think of is changing your weight loss goal as you lose weight. The smaller you are the smaller of a deficit you should have.

    To increase your calories you can either choose a smaller weekly goal or manually change your calorie amounts.
