The following changes to a day's schedule updates that day's calorie target:
- Adding, editing or deleting a workout
- Changing your step count
- Copying a day onto it
- Typing a day target by hand
What happens to that day's meals depends only on when the day is.
| Day | What happens to your meals |
|---|---|
| Yesterday and earlier | Only the day target updates, so your history is accurate. Meals stay put. |
| Today | We always ask first. |
| Tomorrow and later | Meals move on their own. Lock a meal to keep it in place. |
The first time the app moves or leaves your meals without asking, a notice such as Your meals were adjusted shows this same table. After that, you only see a short message on the Schedule when your weekly plan changes, such as "This takes your plan for this week from 3100 to 3200 calories a day."
What never moves:
- Checked-in meals
- Locked meals
- Locked days (see Locked days and locked meals)
- Workout shakes
The app also never takes a day below its safe minimum.
Changing today
If meals later today can take the change, the app asks Update your meals?, for example "Spread 80 calories across the meals you haven't eaten yet?" Either answer is safe.
- Update meals adjusts the meals you haven't eaten yet.
- Leave it alone keeps them as planned. The difference shows in your day balance.
- Show the math shows where the number comes from.
If every remaining meal is already eaten, locked or filled in, nothing moves and you'll see Your meals stayed where they were. That's not an error.
Not much day left. If a change late in the day would take calories off the little that's left of today, you see this instead. It suggests eating what you planned and letting tomorrow even it out.
- Eat as planned keeps your meals.
- Update meals takes the calories off anyway.
