I didn't know where to share this, but I have a problem
Sometimes when I press the complete entry; it does not show the I have completed my diary in my profile and I think this means it won't show to my friends as well.
This happens if I cometed the entry in 2 or 3 hours after midnight.
This is extremely fraustraing as I can't log all the stuff I eat before midnight sometimes and I feel like I missed something even though I stayed under calories but my fitness pal still punishes me for being late by depriving me from sharing the results with my friends!
Is there a solution for this?

Mine usually gives me a 12 hour window to hit complete. Are you sure you aren't under 1200 calories? MFP doesn't like it when ladies do that (or guys go under 1500).0

The program is set to end the day at midnight of the time zone you have set in your profile settings. Some users set their time zone a few zones to the west so that they can complete it a little later than midnight of their actual location's time zone.
Please see these articles, and many other helpful articles, on the MFP Help pages...

Thank you all for your replies!
I noticed that sometimes it takes a while for the post to appear; I just need to be more patient, but I have changed the timezone antway0 -
I noticed MFP doesn't automatically sync (which posts your status) after hitting complete, so you need to sync it yourself if you want to see the status then.0
