Under Budget, but not hungry?

Is it a bad thing that I am consistently in the 'Under' Calories section on the 'Calories in vs Out'?

 

Take yesterady for example I ate 1,220 calories based on the Myfitnesspal database, but I burnt 2,983 calories through-out the day which means that there was a 1,763 calorie difference and this put me in the 'Under' category.

 

What happens if I'm regularly in the Under category?

Will my BMI come down? (current BMI is 20.5 - Which is in the normal range)

 

Thanks Dom,

@wilkco123 

I've found that when i eat healthier foods that my calorie intake is much less but i am still getting everything my body needs.  Your BMI might change depending on what you are eating.  IF you are eating more lean protien and veggies vs. high fat foods and high carbs, you may aquire more lean muscle and loose some body fat etc.  Check out this thread, https://community.fitbit.com/t5/Weight-Loss/Under-Budget-but-not-hungry/m-p/730749, It gives a pretty good idea of what we are talking about.
