I think I need to up my intake since I started doing Heavy lifting I was sticking to 1200 and that was working out great. But I am very hungry now so I want to up it but can't figure out how to do it here. THanks

    click on "my home" then go to settings. You will see it there.

    If you're heavy lifting you'll want to eat back the majority of your exercise calories, at a bare minimum.

    Click on "My Home". Then, click on "Goals". You can have myfitnesspal automatically select goals, or enter them manually.
