Under cals but over on fat
Pretty much what it says on the lable really! Quite a few days I notice that although I'm under my calories I'm going over on fat.

General question about entering food
hi, I was just wondering how everyone entered the food they eat. For example tonight I am having pasta bake with only a bit of pasta & lots of veg, low fat cheese, salad & veggie sausages.
