Completing Daily Food log after midnight

When I complete my food log after midnight, MFP does not post it on my home page and my friends updates that I have completed my day. My friends then think that I didn't log for that day. Does anyone else have this issue and is there something I can do to change this?

    Yeah. I usually just hit the button to complete the entry, then it pops up.

    Yeah, mine wont post to my page if it is after midnight. Guess they don't think we want it posted if we wait til the next day.

    Also remember your friends can see your diary at any time, via your profile so they can always look that way if they are curious.

    It will not pop up on mine no matter what I do!

    It will also break your "you have logged in for so-many-days-in a row"...every time I log an entry now, I hit complete that way whether I enter my lunch and dinner after midnight or not, it doesn't matter.

    go to your settings and change it so that it pops up i had to do it too because i couldnt figure out why mine was doing the same thing.

    That's the part I hate! I've logged 235 days in a row, but I've completed after midnight twice, so no one knows. LOL!

    For me, I have mine account defaulted to Pacific time, while I'm actually Eastern Standard time. I log my calories/exercise often around 12-1am, and like having the extra time to do so. Plus, I haven't had another instance where the system reset my login counter because it thought I never logged my calories for the day :)

    That's so smart! I just changed mine. :)

    Thank you for this suggestion! Very smart! I changed my time zone and that worked perfectly!

    Ah, so you just "Complete" even though your day isn't done...good idea. I'll try that as I'm having the same issues.
