How do you reset the calorie goal back to automatic? I don’t want to have any particular amount set but when I try to zero it out, it says I have to have between 1,000 and 5,000. Please help. Thanks.

Hello @SCJFit1, have a warm welcome to the Fitbit Community, it's great to have you on board. Smiley Happy

 

Thanks for bringing this to my attention. Tell me, are you trying to set to automatic the amount of "calories burned" goal or the calories "left to eat" goal? 

 

If it's the first one, the "calories burned" can't be set to automatic, you should choose an amount of calories to burn during the day. To edit the goal, go to the Fitbit app > Account > Activity > Calories Burned. Keep in mind that your BMR calories will also add to this total. 

 

 

For the second one, the calories "left to eat", you will need to set a Food Plan before so the app will calculate the amount of calories you have left to consume during the day. Depending on the intensity of the food plan, the calories will adjust automatically. To set up a Food Plan, go to the Fitbit app > Account > Nutrition & Body > Food and follow the onscreen instructions. 

 

I hope this resolves your inquiry, if there's anything else I can do for you, please feel free to reply
