Sliding Calorie Scale?
How do I change my eat meter's daily calorie requirements? When I started it said I should be consuming roughly 2400 calories a day to meet my goal, but now I entered a new weight, it's still saying that I should eat 2400 calories. I went to the calorie target under tools and it says I should be eating 1900 calories.
Do I need to reset my starting weight to get the new number? I really don't want to do that as it will basically be starting from zero again, when I feel that this first 15 pounds is already a big accomplisment, and I want to be able to look back and see how far I've come when I get to my goal weight.
Also, according to BMI I should be around 180 pounds at the high end of the scale, but the last time I lost weight, and got down to 230 (another 40 pounds away, my family thought I was sick looking. At 180 I'd be more ripped than Lance Armstrong, but I've known BMI doesn't work for years.
Hi Beerslinger,
Click on "My Account" then sub menu "Account Settings". There you can change your Target Daily Calories.

If you entered your weight in the weight log, the burn meter should have decreased. Subtract 500 - 700 from that to determine your new calorie intake.
