Does FD "learn" as weight changes?

Hi FD :-)

If my metrics ("You burn this much per day") are "X" at BW "Y", does FD automatically/intuitively change it's report as I lose weight and depending upon the activity I report ?

Thank you !

The amount you burn each day is based on your Lifestyle calories + any additional exercise.

Thanks -

Let's say I weigh 200lbs and I burn X calories per day, exclusive of exercise. Later on in the future, I weigh 175 lbs. Exclusive of exercise, don't I burn fewer calories now than when I started? Meaning, to keep losing, I must restrict even further and/or exercise even more to keep losing, yes ?

If my thinking is correct -is it?- does FitDay "learn" this as I proceed and change it's suggestions as to how much I need to restrict as I go along and keep losing weight ?
