MYPLATE Help!

[cool_romance]

I am confused about something on that website. Okay, I weigh 131 lbs right now... I go to the "Calorie Goals/Calorie Calculator" thing and it asks for my age (19), height (5'4), weight (I am 131 lbs and want to lose the last remaining 6 lbs to get down to 125 lbs... I want to lose 2 lbs a week.), goal (lose 2 lbs a week), and activity level (Lightly Active).

I don't know what they meant by the "weight" part- Are they asking for your current weight, or your goal weight? I'm sorry if I sounded silly, and thank you.

Use your current weight.

ETA: When you input your daily, weekly or monthly weight on the weight chart, myplate will adjust your calories up or down depending on the last weight recorded. As I've lost weight, the daily calories required has dropped from 2400 when I started down to 1880 currently. Hope this helps.
