Only Fitbit knows @jacko0403
However feel free to add suggestions to the subforum Feature Requests where users can vote, add comments with the possibility of being picked up by the developers to integrate the functionality.

@MatthewFitbit it doesnt support it - yes I can set my "weight goal" but my calorie intake does not change with that goal.
I need to be able to set my calorie's manually. it's very discouraging to read "you are over budget" when Im only half way to my needed goal.
I need to gain 10-20 lbs my doctor wants me to eat 2500-3000k calories a day. Your app tells me Im over budget before hitting 1600 😕

Have you tried setting your own calorie target from the link below in the food plan?
Hope this helps!

@SebringDon I dont see that option in my Food Plan. When I reach the point in your instructions that state how to change the plan intensity - it gives me the message that Im set to 'maintain' and that fitbit "currently do(es) not support Food Plans with a weight gain goal."

@gainittowinit: Just a thought: maybe it’s only available in the Premium package? I’m saying this because I see @SebringDon has Premium, while you do not (I don’t either).

2 years and this hasn't been sorted out?
I need to eat over 2500 kcals a day or I lose weight.
2 YEARS?!?!

This is still an issue, is there any update?

Why doesn’t Fitbit support weight gain! Surely it is obvious, that not everyone wants to lose weight.

https://www.fitbit.com/group/22BNVK - seems to be the largest active group of weight gainers.
Even though this company pays us no attention, we should still attempt to show some solidarity... we are "heavily" out-numbered by the doughnut eaters!

great question, i am always trying to gain weight and never see much groups or help with gaining. I would love to connect with a group of others that want to gain as well.

@b.lana Sorry those types of groups have been removed. Try looking in the app and see if there is one
