    Why the *kitten* did I deserve a woo???

    When the Woo button was first launched it had two meanings. Since lots of people still think it means "Woo Hoo!", a positive, just ignore it.

    If I can't find an accurate exercise calorie burn in the database I just create my own to use.

    You didn't; maybe someone just missed the Like button. That's what I'd be telling myself, anyway :)

    yes, most likely :)

    My diary for exercise is pretty strange too. I have two apps synced with MFP, Pacer and Map My Walk. However, MMW just re-adds what Pacer is already putting in so I just put 1 calorie or so alongside dedicated walks. I just like to include them here as a way of viewing what I have done. You just have to do what you have to do to make MFP work best for you which can be quite an individual thing.

    I edit the numbers posted for exercise, sometimes taking 1/2, sometimes more. It kind of depends on where I am in my maintenance range. I get enough exercise that having my daily goal roughly correct and using a little voodoo on the exercise numbers is usually enough to move the weight in the right direction, though right now I have my goal about 100 low to slowly move back to the lower half of my range.
