How come myfitnesspal doesn't try to calculate calories lost when weight lifting? =(

    Well, I put in my strength training, but it doesn't tell me how many calories are being burned in the process. =(

    Go to Cardio Exercise. Search "strength training" there. Enter time you spend doing it to get a calorie burned for it. Strength section is just to track reps and weights.
