@jcgator2016 hope Hurricane Dorian doesn't hit you too hard. The southwest coast of FL was preparing as well just in case Dorian decided to come more west. Having survived Hurricane Irma in SW FL 2 yrs ago I know what you are going through. My prayers for your and everyone's continued safety.

@hansep0012 i rarely eat back any exercise calories. I never rely on the MFP calories burned for exercises. I use a heart rate monitor to get a more accurate calories burned amount. Granted nothing is perfect.
