Set your own calories target on iOS app

Being a Weightloss patient having had gastric bypass my calories are significantly lower than your presets so making them customizable would allow me to track better. My max daily intake is only supposed to be under 700! Currently the flex app does not allow us to set desired calories.

I'm interested in the same thing. I'm working with a dietitian and have my calories set at a custom number.

Bariactric patients and Myself cannot consume 1,000 + calories. There needs to be a way to be able to set personal calorie goals much, much lower.

I'm happy to announce that this is a feature now. You're able to set your own calorie target using your iOS app by doing this procedure: 

- Go to the main app > tap the exercise 

- Tap on account > goals > Nutrition & Body 

- Food > tap on "I want to set my own goal"
