    1010 Calorie Goal?

    Hello All,

    I'm back after a hiatus and a bit of weight gain.

    I used to get a 1200 goal limit, and even when I set my goal to 1 lb/week, I'm getting a 1010 limit?

    Seems low and I found discussion boards going back to Feb saying it was a MFP glitch and they were looking to fix it.

    What gives? Is this right?

      No, that is not right. The minimum should be 1200. I would contact them about that.

      Then it still does not work. MFP is suppose to have red lines if you eat below 1200 calories.

      Are yours working OK?

      Mine is fine. I would try updating the app (assuming you're on mobile.)

      There was an old version of the app that glitched and would set users lower than 1200. You might try updating your app or recalculate your goals from the website to see what happens.

      Yes, it gives you a minimum of 1200 if you put in your stats and how much per week to lose. You can however over ride that at any time. In the app mlp click on goals and then calorie and macronutrients and type whatever number you like. It accepts it and doesn't give you any warnings.

      Log into a computer and reinter your stats.
