    If you haven't changed your goals within the last ten pounds lost, MFP will prompt you to adjust. Otherwise, it's up to you.

    Instead of using the Check-In go to settings->Update diet/fitness profile and change it there, it will adjust your calories.

    Your post is very hard to read - but are you saying you want to lower your calories because it has been 2 weeks and you aren't losing? Before lowering your calories I would look to how accurate your logging is. I know on WW they're a little looser when it comes to logging. If you're counting calories you'll probably have to be a lot more accurate than you're used to. Be sure you're using accurate entries, you're using a food scale, you're using the recipe builder, logging EVERYTHING you eat/drink (including fruits and veggies) etc.

    Malibu answered the question earlier. If you have lost 10 lbs since the last goal update, it will recalculate your goal net calories.

    No. It does not. You have to do it by re-running "goals".

    Redoing the goals ? You mean starting with the weight you are now and how much you want to loose? If so how often do you do this?
