    The website factors in calories you probably burned in a day based on what you selected when it asked you how active your daily life is. It doesn't say it in your food diary, but it still accounts for it. You can always go change what it says for how active your lifestyle is

    grams of Protein = 4 cals per

    try putting them back to the orignial format (I.E. Carbs, then Fat, then Protein).

    I wonder if they are just adding it up by collumn. You should post this in the website feedback section. Mike and Al should be made aware of it.
