Nifty App Thingy

The MFP app for android has a "summery" button, to tell you your average daily calories. I focus on this number, not the daily number... like calorie cycling, anybody else do this?

It's on the My Home tab also. I tend to watch it more than the daily number. I think a lot of people watch the daily number then end up not eating back what they burned in exercise. If they'd look at the summary they'd probably notice they're actually eating less than 1,000 calories a day and eventually that's going to slow their metabolism down. I pay attention to both numbers but if that summary is under 1300, I will eat more.

I posted about this not that long ago, but didn't get many responses. I, too, find the average of my calories to be more helpful than the daily for keeping an eye on my overall trends. I can see the average of my weekly calories on "weekly" tab. Is there a way to view average over all? I must just not be looking in the right place!

AHA!! Thanks!
