MFP doesn't update daily calorie intake when lost weight

When I enter a weight loss in MFP it doesn't update the diary and my home total daily calorie intake. Any way to get these to all be consistent?

    Until they fix it, what I do is run the update diet/fitness goals wizard, find my new daily calorie goal, then manually update it under "My Home" then "Goals".

    I do the same thing, though I don't expect that they will ever fix it. I've been on MFP since 2013 and this is one of the bugs that hasn't changed.

    For a while, it did work for me. Then it recently stopped. I blame UA.

    Harold, i thought it was working before too and not sure what happened, so that's why I posted. BTW ... what is 'UA'?

    Thanks, I did see where I can manually enter in the new daily calorie goals.

    Where do you find the diet/fitness goals wizard?

    Click on the 'Home' tab at the top left of MFP main page, then click 'Settings' in the bar below the home tab, then click on 'Update diet/fitness profile' in the list going down the left hand side. Enter your new weight, click save and then see what it says for your new daily calorie intake. Then you can click on 'Home' again and then goals and manually enter the new information. Hope this helps.

    Here is the funny thing. Last night I logged my weight on my android app and the goal calories dropped to 1640. I log into the website this morning on my PC and it shows goal calories of 1700. Look at my android again to make sure I wasn't loosing my mind and nope still show 1640. Two different goal calories depending on which piece of tech I am looking at, not a good bug!
