Can you get MFP to up your daily calorie allowance?

Mine is currently set to 1,200 per day, but I don't think this is enough and want to up it to either 1,400 or 1,500. Can you do this or does MFP just 'decide' what your calorie allowance is to be for your to attain your goal and you can't change it?

Sorry to ask such a mundane question, but I've tried to do it a couple of times without any success!

    Click on the MY HOME tab and then your GOALS tab. Click on Change Goals. Pick Guided and Continue. Up your Normal Daily Activities if you can. That will give you more calories to burn.
    Or you can up your Goal Weight.
