Why do the total intake charts at the bottom of the Diet page show negative numbers under my Target sections?
The total calorie intake at the bottom of the diet page usually shows a negative number when a dieter sets too high a weekly rate for losing weight (“Target Weight Loss Rate”). The healthy/sustainable weight loss rate for an average person is about 2lb/week. Once the rate goes over 2lb/week, the total calorie intake decreases fast and eventually shows a negative number. To check if you set too high a Target Weight Loss Rate, go to your Weight Loss Settings section (My Page > Weight Loss Settings), and check the Target Weight Loss Rate you set as your goal.
