How do you adjust the calories on MFP

Hello,
i was wondering how to adjust the calories you are eating on MFP. For example, it is set that I should eat 1200 but I know that is not nearly enough for me. I need about 1547 according to my TDEE - 20%. Is there anyway to set that as my calorie goal?
Please let me know!
Thanks!

To customize MFP you click SETTINGS>GOAL>CHANGE GOAL>CUSTOM0

That doesn't seem to be an option...I am so confused! The only options I get under "goal" are the pre set ones0

I agree with Amy, but the other way to do it is go to "my home", goals, custom etc... Hope that helps0

Ahh I finally found it. Some times my brain shuts off at 8 pm0
