Managing Calorie Schedule and Custom Budgets

This article explains how the Calorie Schedule feature impacts your daily budget and how to revert your log to a fixed daily Custom budget.


Understanding Calorie Schedules

When a Calorie Schedule is enabled on your account, Lose It! automatically shifts your calories around based on the days you prefer more or fewer calories (such as allocating a higher budget on weekends).

While your chosen days will display higher budgets and others will display lower ones, your average budget over a 7-day period remains the exact budget you originally set for your custom budget.

Removing a Calorie Schedule

If you wish to turn this feature off and see the exact same Custom budget every single day, you can remove the schedule directly within the app.

Lose It! App

  • Open Lose It!
  • Tap Profile (top right corner)
  • Under the Program section, tap Calorie Schedule
  • Tap Yes, make changes to my schedule
  • Tap Remove my Calorie Schedule

Once you remove the schedule, your Log will immediately refresh to show your fixed Custom budget every day of the week.
