How do I adjust my calorie intake on MFP?

The MFP calculator has set me at 1200cals per day. But I've discovered I lose weight better at 1400 (no idea why). I'd love to reset as it's a bit demoralising to keep getting the message that I'm over my goal. Is it possible to over-ride it and reset calorie goals?
