How often should you recalculate MFP calories/macros?

Hi I am new to MFP and have been using it for 17 days or so. How often should you update your info to recalculate calorie/macro goal? I'm using mfp for weight loss and am curious on when a person should recalculate.

Thank you,
Waylon

PS mfp makes this diet a lot easier lol

    I believe you are prompted to recalculate calorie goal every 10 pounds. I switch to maintenance calories once per month for a few days so when I switch back MFP has my current weight. It also resets to the default macros whenever I switch my weekly weight loss goal, so I have to keep re-entering that >.<

    Why would you redo your macro goal?
