Is there a way to change your goal weight in the app?
I would like to lose another 5lbs beyond my original goal weight & can’t figure out how to do that.

Hi there CanadaAnne-
Yes! You can change your goal weight in the app.
Go to the "Coach" tab then "My Plan" then "Target Weight."
If you run into any roadblocks we have an awesome support team. They can be reached at support@mynetdiary.com

Thank you. I’m a bit confused now - I am aiming to lose an extra 5lbs by the same target date. My daily calorie limit has actually gone up. Is that because I am further ahead of my original goal than planned?

Hi CanadaAnne- Yes you are correct.
The MyNetDiary algorithm adjusts as your weight loss adjusts.
The app uses your data (age, ht, wt, gender, wt loss goal, date) to predict an average daily calorie budget for you. Through regular tracking, you will learn what works best for your body. You may find you need to eat a bit less than predicted or perhaps a bit more. To learn more about the algorithms that are used in the app check out: https://www.mynetdiary.com/planning_weight_and_calories.html
Strong work on your weight loss! Best, Joanna (MyNetDiary Dietitian)
