    I'm kinda skeptical about this. According to the calculator, my body contains 3 gallons/10 liters of blood. Since the body is made up of 7% blood, that should, for me, at 88kgs be about 6 liters. A bit too far off.
    I also miss a button that takes me back to myfitnesspal, so I wouldn't have to use the browser's back button.

    Have no idea how you came up with your calculations, but I can solve the problem of the "button" to take you back to MFP. My directions are based upon a Windows op sys, using IE: Right click on link to calculator. Choose option to open in another window or another tab. This leaves the original MFP window open and available. When you are finished with the calculator, you can close the window or the tab that it was in, or leave it open, your choice, and resume using the MFP page that you originally had open.

    BTW, many people don't realize that you can have multiple windows open to MFP and everything will still work fine.

    Thanks for the input. I'm aware of the various options different browsers give regarding multiple windows and tabs and navigation and such. From a user experience point of view it doesn't make sense to apparently make the page in question a dead end tho. Thus the suggestion. Of course it was way of topic. ;)

    However, the totally weird result from the calculator wasn't something I came up with, but the calculator.
