Did you lose weight? As you get lighter your calories get less. And using all caps is considered yelling.0

I am down 15 pound total, but only 3 since starting MFP0

I set me initial calorie goal based on what the Jillian Micheals website gave me in a profile- 2012 calories per day.
MFP just changed it to 1200. Seems like a big jump.0 -
Did you select that you wanted to lose 2 pounds per week? That'll get most anyone to the 1200 calorie goal.0

O yea I did.0

Remember, that is net calories. You can eat 2012, if you burn 800 exercising0

A) listen to jillian michaels not mfp, 1200 is too low.
Losing 2 lbs per week is not advisable or safe. Change it to .5 or 1 lb per week for a more accurate calorie goal
