Setting A Weight Maintenance Goal in MyNetDiary? Topic


Hi Zebrazapinsky, MyNetDiary uses the IOM/DRI equations for setting maintenance calories. Be sure to use the correct overall activity setting - "sedentary" if you also log exercise. You can learn more about calories in this short article if you haven't already read it: http://www.mynetdiary.com/customizing-calorie-goals.html

Now, if you have already tweaked your settings and still feel the calories estimation is too high, then you can customize your calories intake to a lower level without having to change your true current body weight. Have you tried that?


I've reached my goal of losing 25 lbs. but I think I'd like to drop another 15 by the end of 2020. How do I change my plan or do I create another?


Hi Rebhunr,
Way to go on 25 lbs lost!!
Of course, you can adjust your plan anytime. Go to "Coach", click on "My Plan" and adjust your goal weight and target date.

Hi!
know this is an old thread, but it answered my question perfectly! I was getting a little upset this thing was suggesting I eat MORE, because, you know, if you insist... LOL

Just a setting. Perfect!
