Am I going over every week? I don't understand. I'm Fitbit synced so my cals do go up.

    Hey there! I believe that what it means is that your caloric burn and intake are in a balance; if you are using Fitbit to get an accurate caloric burn, make sure to log your workouts through fitbit and your food only through MFP; otherwise they will double up.

    Also, isn't 1200 a bit too low for a 36 year old woman? I'd double check on that since you may not lose weight with a really low budget.

    No, you are actually under your goal, just as it says.

    I think that's one of the glitches that hasn't been fixed. It seems like it's actually calculating your gross calories on that page rather than net.

    Yeah, if my net is under why is my gross over?
