Confused when I complete my diary

I've used this site off and on for quite some time. Recently started logging again so I'm mostly familiar with everything. However I'm confused as lately when I 'complete this entry' for today it says at the bottom 'You are eating too few calories' but then also says 'If everyday were like today you'd weigh...' And is always more or the same as I weigh now. So confused. My daily calorie goal is set to 1,200. In case that helps at all.

It's never under calorie by too much, but I still don't understand if I'm eating within my goaI why is my weight going to go up?

Thanks in advance!

    Don't pay attention to the 5 week thing. It's based on some mathematical formula, and it's not 100% correct. Just take it with a grain of salt.

    As for the calorie goal, you should be eating 1200 calories as your minimum. You're getting that message because you are eating below 1200, which isn't recommended.

    Ah, okay! They should really remove that feature if it's not accurate then! Also, its okay because I'm only ever under by a few calories, by a very minimal amount and not often!

    Thanks for your reply :)
