Mfp seems messed up. I was testing changing my weight to adjust the calorie goal. I put it up to 250 and it gave me 1750. Then back to my current weight of 223 and it went up to 1910. That's what I started at at 255.???

    You may have changed or MFP went to the default for your activity level? Other than that I don't know.

    yeah it sounds like one of the settings was reset somewhere along the way, your calorie goal is a result of you current weight, rate of loss selected, and activity level all calculated together

    I just know that MFP seems to be a bit wonky today. I've had a few issues myself with it not grabbing information from my other apps.

    There was another user that had this issue a few weeks ago. Seems to be some sort of glitch.

    I bit more confused, I discovered http://www.iifym.com/tdee-calculator/ and my TDEE on there is 2500 so if thats more accurate than should I be eating more like 2000-2100cals a day? After 55lbs lost my progress has slowed down quite a bit over the last few weeks.
