    You can change the calories if you go through the maual set-up vs. guided. The app is ok for adding foods, but to change settings it's easier if you do it on an actual computer.

    Honestly, I would be cautious about cutting your calories too quickly, though. 1800 calories is probably about right. I started at 289 and I'm sure I ate around that many, if not more. If you cut your calories too drastically at first, it can be harder to stick to and the body doesn't always cooperate anyway. I have lost 107 pounds and still eat 1600 calories. Good luck to you...take it slow!

    I agree with heyjude. I started at 289 and down 31bs. I just recently adjusted my calories from 2100 to 1731. Only because I currently can't do HIIT workouts. I can only do low impact. Plus I workout 6 days a week. But Btbeam might have a better understanding, since they have lost the weight.

    Feel free to add me :) I'm 9 months pregnant and having this little one on the 26th. From my current weight I'd like to lose about 100 lbs.
