    You must have your profile set up for Non-US. Should be under your diary settings I believe.

    Good for you for trying again & not settling for 2nd best! It does take a lot of sweat, healthy foods, & commitment to lose the desired weight, but it's definitely possible!! Did you gain more from the last time you visited? Starting today, not tomorrow, is key, but you can do this!!

    Add me if you'd like!! :)

    Not sure it is a country thing but a preference, Kilojoules is actually a more accurate description for an energy unit I believe. I also think that calories are just a shortening of Kilocalories or Kcalories
