Something weird is going on with my calorie allotment and macros
Here is what my calorie allotments and macros are when viewed from the Goals page: This info is correct. Yet when I go to my Food page, the daily allotments are different (and higher).

Avatar in Prison?
Couldn't find an appropriate spot for this question, but what does it mean when a forum member's avatar is currently displayed behind bars?

Also, what low fat, low calorie food products have you…

Can Anyone Explain To Me...

Yay me! o:) At the end of each day, I've pushed the "Complete This Entry" button after having diligently weighed and logged every morsel that passed my…

New Fitbitzip user with a question.
Well I seem to have set up my fitbit to synch with MFP okay. But I have one question about logging in cardio exercise. The Fitbit app instructs me to do this: 2. Record start times for all cardio exercises. In order for your Fitbit tracker to accurately calculate your calorie burn, you'll need to record a start time for…

Yup, another Newb. :)
Just started here about a week ago, and am getting familiar with the site and love it so far! I recently turned 60 and knew I had to drop the pounds. I was one of those tall, skinny people most of my life - could eat anything - and then real life happened. ;) Had a daughter, developed thyroid issues, broke a leg, broke an…
