I've been using this app for about three weeks to lose weight, and it's always shown my Calories Remaining as my food calories minus my exercise calories. Now, it's still showing it as the green Calorie remaining, but when I complete the entry, it says I will weigh more if every day is like today??? My husband is having the same problem on his app. Neither of us have ever had this issue before.

    That projection thing is unreliable and unpredictable. I have eaten 2000cals over and it said I would weigh 10lbs less. It is a pretty pointless tool. Ignore it

    It's never failed me before. I don't use it as a tool. I just use it to make sure that my goals are adjusted correctly and the calorie goal is correct.

    That aspect of the app constantly is plagued by bugs. If you are at your cal goal that mfp gave you then you are on the right track. No need to even looking at the projection.
