Question re: Calorie Budget

[flamewerks]

My calorie budget always says 331 calories. That is way too low. Where is this limit set and/or what does it detail?

Hi there -

Yes, that is still too low. I'm going to send you a private message about this, as I need some info from you, like weight and age, etc.

Thanks,

Emily

I changed my goal from 3 lbs/week to 2 lbs/week. This changed the calorie budget to ~800 calories, which is still too low. It doesn't become a reasonable value until the loss goal is well below 1 lb/week.


Thank you for your response.

Hi there -

Yes, that is way too low. Check your goal dates and goals. It could be that you have set an unrealistic goal, maybe in error.

Your goal should reflect a weight loss of no more than 1-2 lbs per week.

Let us know if that isn't what's happening.
