Why so much red?

So I just clicked on this part of my diary/profile/whatever and I noticed a lot of my stats are in the red...why would that be? and there is a part there that says the calories burned during normal daily activity...where did that number come from? I can't remember setting that up or anything.

I've been eating roughly 1300-1500 cals a day for the past 2 months or so since i started have I been doing this thing wrong some how from the beginning? :neutral: ?

    It's just red to make it stand out. It's not a "bad" red. The calories burned from daily activity comes from the stats you put into the calculator. Your height, weight, age or whatever else it takes.

    The red is just highlighting what your goals are.

    oh cool thanks you guys!

    I just sort of made the assumption that yeah Red = BAD!

    I guess i just never really paid to much attention to this part when i set everything up. But as long as it's not a negative thing I'll just stick with what im doing :)
