I just joined MFP this month have lost 5 lbs! I absolutely love this site and will continue to use it.

I have one question though. I've notice my 'daily calorie goal' is always changing. I started out with 1200 cals and today I signed on it's at 1440 cals. Why would it change? Did I do something wrong?

Thanks in advance for the help!

Julie

    Did you exercise? When you input your exercise, then your calorie intake will increase for that day.

    I do exercise and burned more calories yesterday than I usually have been. But, I haven't put any exercise in yet today. That was the starting calories for the day... :ohwell:

    Try checking your weightloss goals in your profile. Maybe it changed somehow???

    I checked the goals and everything looks the same as it did before.

    I just realized that the app on my droid is still at 1200 cals...so weird! Not sure which one to believe!
