Post/report bugs here

[tamarian]

Please use this thread to report any problems/bugs.

Please provide as much information as possible. It should be detailed enough to allow us to replicate the error, so it can be better understood.

For example "I went to the search page, and entered chicken in the search box, then click on page 2, followed by selecting the last entry on the page, clicked "Add to favourites", and clicked on the "go" button. That's when I got an error message that said "Selected date is not valid, please make sure you have entered the correct date".

The more details, the better :)

Hi Wa'il,

I'm not sure what you can do about this, but I think there may be a problem for Mac users.

Oyvey had the problem here, and I've just been exchanging PMs with another Mac user who has found that even though she clicked "add to favourites" for several items, when she goes to "Daily Entry" her Favourites box is empty.

Without detailed steps to reproduce the errors, I have no idea what the problem is, or how it fix it if it exists.

Why does the graph only show today's entry and not all the entries I have posted?

[~Dawn~]

Never mind. I just went back into it and the graph is now updated. Sorry.

That's alright. This happens when browsers cache images. If you don't see a change in a graph, just hit the browser's refresh/reload key.

Whenever I try and add Post CarbWell cereal I get this error, "Please enter the amount in numbers without additional characters." I know it's because the serving size is 3/4 cup and I've tried entering in both 3/4 and .75 as the amount, but because of the "/" and "." it won't allow me to enter it - is there any way we can enter foods like this or can we only enter food in increments of 1? Thanks. :)

Give it another try, you now can enter fractions, as 0.25, 0.5, 1.5 etc. :)

Thanks.

Got another one though, how about if you DO get an error there's a "back" button to go back to the work you've been doing. I keep getting different errors for whatever reasons and when I need to go back (by hitting the back button on the browser) all the information I've entered is gone - it's very frustrating to have to re-enter it.

Hi Wa'il! Love the new feature ;)

But, i was trying to fill in my stats and it just wont take my height! I tried everything except centimetres for a mesurement, but for each it said 'invalid height'.

I've decided I'm never going to get this cereal entered in - 30 minutes later and my next error is:

"The nutritional date you have entered are incorrect. Please make sure to enter valid data.

You have entered 110 calories, but the data entered totals to 118 calories. The formula to calculate calories is as follows:

Calories = Carbs x 4 + Proteon x 4 + Fat x 9 + Alcohol x 6.93

The data you entered comes to:

Calories = 118 = 14 * 4 + 11 * 4 + 2 * 9 + 0 * 6.93 = 118

Possible reasons are:

1. You did not enter the label data accurately, re-check to ensure accuracy

2. The label may have listed carbs by weight (including fiber) and not by difference. In this case, subtract the fiber from the carb count

3. The label is incorrect, or contains hidden carbs."

I know the label is correct, I thought carbs I only entered in carbs-fiber, so I initially wrote 9 carbs, but I got the same error. So I figured that it must mean all carbs, so I put 14... Neither worked. I think there should be some wiggle room like fitday has, if you're off by a few calories it'll still let you enter it in, it's only when you're off my a large % of calories that it won't let you enter it in... Being off my 6 or 7 calories doesn't seem like a big deal to me.

Make sure you do not enter " or '', just plain numbers.

So for 5' 3", click on the "feet" button, and 5 in the first box, and 3 in the second box.

There is some wiggle room, but it wasn't much :) Give it another try, it will now overlook differences less than 10%, instead of 5%

how about those sugar alcohols? where should we put them?

[tamarian]

how about those sugar alcohols? where should we put them?

Their's an optional field for maltitol, among other sugars.

Wa'il

[tamarian]

I take back the reply re: maltitol and sugar alcohol. These values are not yet available in the USDA-SR17 database. We'll be adding them as soon as they become available.

What's there right now is maltose, not maltitol., which I don't think is a sugar alcohol.

Wa'il

[LC-Laur]

The ECC isn't subtracting fiber on the main page... It's the same as total carbohydrate.

[tamarian]

The ECC isn't subtracting fiber on the main page... It's the same as total carbohydrate.

This is due to the fiber being subtracted already in USDA-SR17 database, which we're using. Only a small subset of the entries do not have the fiber subtracted, and those will show if the ECC option is turned on. So it's best to change the display to fiber (from the settings menu)

Proteon

When trying to input Dreamfield's Pasta as a custom food I noticed that Protein was mispelled. I take it that there is probably no way yet to count the Dreamfields as 5 carbs per half a cup instead of the 42 or so it's currently listing at. With my luck it probably is worth 42 for me.

Dreamfield's Pasta allegedly counts as only 5 grams of carbs per serving. It is listed as 42 on the side of the box and the formula will not work properly unless I list it as 42-4 fiber for 38.

The typo is when the formula doesn't work ie. the example quoted above is the place where protein is mispelled.

Got the typo fixe :)

So the 5 grams of carbs is per serving, and the 42 grams is per box?

The tool will allow either one as a serving, as long as you enter the weight of the serving, or the weight of the entire content.

The 38 vs 42 can't be helped, as labeling regulations have run a mock. Some list carbs with fiber subtracted, some don't. Whichever way we go, there will be labels doing it the other way around.

For this reason, I made sure the custom food entry spells it out "Carbohydrate, by difference (fiber subtracted)"

Wa'il

[Elihnig]

The Dreamfields pasta is one of those low carb products. It technically has 42 carbs per half cup serving but they tell you to count only 5 due to their fabulous technology of adding fiber to the outside or something like that. Apparently they have done extensive testing to see to what degree it raises blood sugar.

It's kind of like the sugar alcohol conumdrum when it comes to figuring out net carbs on bars and such.

I suppose it doesn't really matter if today's food looks like I had 100 carbs ;)


Meal Carb Pro Fat Fib Cals
Breakfast 6.8 62.7 38.2 0.6 635
Lunch 3.3 67.7 57.0 0.0 815
Dinner 95.7 59.4 33.4 17.9 932
Totals 105.8 189.9 128.6 18.5 2381

This qualifies as a "claim" by a manufacturer, but will not be valid in term of nutrient calculations. Same goes for net carbs and any other forms of none-carb carbs :)

Trying to add my breakfast and everytime I use the food from my list or try to update the servings after it's on my list I get a screen that says "Results sorted by: Protein, in g , highest first"

I am not performing a search. I am just trying to update my menu as I have done the past 3 days.

In order for me to add foods I have to click on Food List and then add from there. :(

It will also not let me delete an entry I made in error. Sends me to the same search results screen.

I love the new feature on the custom recipe page where we can put in what type of serving it is - however, now when you do enter it into your daily foods eaten it doesn't list "entire recipe" in addition to "1 serving" like it used to. It now let's you, for instance, choose from "100 grams," "1 serving" or "1 serving." The first "1 serving" is actualy the entire recipe and the second "1 serving" is just 1 serving...

I hope that makes sense...

To correct your recipe serving description, simply visit it in the recipe editor, and click on "update servings". This should bring back the "Entire recipe" description.

Morning, Wa'il,

Still having troubles with the PECC. I have some WASA crisp entered as a custom food. I am pretty sure fiber is NOT subtracted from labels here, so the PECC should be different from the Carb count. Eh, it's not. If I switch settings to fiber, than the numbers are right. PECC, not. :help:

Have you done the calculation to determine that it's wrong? List the numbers, and I'll see.

This PECC seems very confusing, so we might just drop it. But we can't just do carbs - fiber, if the fiber is already subtracted...

Looks like the fiber has been subtracted, and the numbers add up correctly, allowing for the 4g difference to be within the 10% margin margin.

Dane, could you take a look at your recipes? 4Beans had a problem with some missing ingredients, so I looked around to see who else might have had this problem. One of your recipes had one ingredient, but I don't know if was created like that, or it was corrupted by an new change.

Sometimes when I use the food search in the middle of the food input page it doesn't seem to register, it just refreshes the page. I usually stop using it and go to the search link on the side but today after using that I searched for another item using the first search box in the middle of the food input page and it worked. Wierd?

Also a question, when I searched for baby carrots I got an option for a serving size of a NLEA serving. What is that?

Not weird, probably just clumsy :) It it doesn't find a result, irt shows nothing. I'll probably add a small sentence to the effect that no results were found.

Also a question, when I searched for baby carrots I got an option for a serving size of a NLEA serving. What is that?

It stands for Labeling and Education Act (NLEA). I'm guessing it's the "recommended" serving size, similar to the RDA percentages and such.

Wa'il, I have a discrepancy on the protein percentage between the Daily Summary and the Nutritional Detail screens for 2/15. The daily summary page and it's C, P, F barchart are both showing 36% protein. By my calculations, this is the one that is off. If you click on the icon for Meal Summary - Totals (lower right hand corner) and go to the Nutritional Detail screens the little bar chart for C, P & F shows 34% protein. Thanks!

Edited to add:
Also, on the View Nutritional Averages screen, if I select 2/13 through 2/15, it shows the average calories as 1517. When I add those days up manually, from the daily summary screens, the average calories is actually 1799.6. I didn't check the other numbers (carbs, fats, etc), so they might be off too.

I noticed that when I go to my Food Lists, under My Favorites, the list only goes to the P's (alphabetically). I don't know if this is related to the update that ended up getting rid of the bulk entries or not, but I noticed these 2 things at the same time.

The entire list is still in my favorites, on the enter data page, but if they aren't in the Food lists, I can't create recipes, or bulk entries.

I have entered in some supplements, if you want to make them public.

The list of favourites is currently limited to 50 items, so that explains why it stops somewhere. I'm still considering if it should go to a 100, or posts a warning message when the list is too big...

You can edit a custom item by clicking on it, and then you'll see the customize button, click that, and you'll be able to edit the item.

Hi Wa'il,

I am not sure if this is a "bug" or a feature request: Why can't I save a stated portion size when I add a custom food or add an item to My Favorites? For example, I added Splenda as a custom food and rather than save my setting of 1 gram (which is the size of one packet), it saved it as 1 ounce, making it 25.5 grams of carb. Last week I entered a custom 5.5 ounce can of V8 but it is saved as a one-ounce serving, so I have to adjust it every time.

I do realize that my default settings are for ounces, but does that mean I can't override those settings when I save custom foods and favorites? It would be so much easier if saving something saved the exact settings I used when I clicked the save button.

Does that make sense?

Sounds like you might want to use the custom size form.

On the custom food page:

Very true. I should re-read all the pages in this post and the feature request one. It's hard to keep up, but there is a lot of information there and many of my questions have probably already been asked.

[Dodger]

It seems that I erroneously entered my Feb 28 2005 weight as Mar 28 2005. I only see it in the monthly view; it does not appear in the list of my weights, so I cannot delete it.

Wa'il, On the Nutrition Reports, Caloric Profile, it's showing data for the dates in March, but has the chart titled as February.

Also, on the Nutrient Profile, no matter what dates you pick from the drop downs, it's showing only March data. So even if you pick February, it shows March data.

I noticed a typo on the bulk meals page. The drop down menu spells multiple meals "multipe" or something like that.

Also could you double check the fried eggs carb count. I've been putting in 2 large fried eggs and the carb count for both was .8 and it should be .6 per egg at least I thought.

Small weirdness to report. I tried to delete some food items on my breakfast menu. I clicked the boxes to the right of each and used the pull down menu to delete them. When the page refreshed, the items were changed but still there. The text was deleted and all the C/P/F data was zeroed but the lines were still there and the size of the font and pie charts had nearly doubled. I selected them again and deleted them and this time they went away. I'm using an iMac laptop and Safari web browser.

Does this happen everytime, or just once? You can test with a future date, entre a few items, then try to delete. I don't have a Mac to test with, but my guess would be that it's due to a browser cache problem. Let me know if hitting "reload/refresh" shows the page correctly.

It just happened once. I've been able to delete items before and since this happened. As I said, it was a small weirdness. I'll let you know if it occurs again, and the refresh doesn't make it go away.

[tigerstar]

All of my May 1st entries are available in “Daily Summary” and “Daily Entry”. However, when I choose “Monthly View”, May 1st is blank. Also, on the little calendar above the Personal Menu, May 1st is not selectable.

[tigerstar]

I found something else. When I’m viewing my notes, from today’s date, then click on "<<Week" to go back one week, I noticed that the calendar above the Personal Menu has April with 31 days, with April 31 sending me to May 1.

[tamarian]

Good finds tigerstar, I'll look into them. The good new is the data is not lost, just the end of the month is screwed. If you look at the daily view, and use prev/next, you'll find the entries. But it's a bug, and will get fixed.

Hi Wa'il,

I've noticed a glitch with my food lists. The favourites and custom foods obviously go to more than one page, yet I can only access the first page.
For example, the list of favourites only goes from A to L, with no page 2, and my Custom Foods A to T.
I noticed it because I went to delete a yoghurt entry from my favourites, but cannot access it. :help:

Water can be entered through a search for water (you can add it to favourites so it becomes handy for entry).

Recorded BF is entered from the measurements page (under progress & charts)

I've noticed that at the top right, where it displays the percentage of carbs, protein, and fat you have had for the day, the fat and protein percents aren't right. For instance, 9/19 my total Protein was 126.8 and my total Fat was 83.7, but the percents at the top right showed 38% protein and 56% fat.

Feel free to check it out for yourself.

That's actually correct. You cannot compare it to the weight of the food, since fat has more than twice the calories of protein, per weight.

[Absinthe62]

OK, I haven't read all 9 pages of the thread so this may be a duplicate bug.

I spent considerable time entering the nutrition data for a custom food only to have the program tell me the calorie level was incorrect and the item had hidden carbs. (It displayed some long formula for calculating calories.) There was no option for editing the entry and when I used the 'back' button on the browser, all the info was gone. My only choice is to re-enter the data from scratch.

Could you provide some way of editing a mistake instead of having to re-enter all that data?

Many thanks.

[spiroll]

Hi...

A glitch I've noticed is that after a search for the word sugar completes, the page is stretched out so that I have to scroll over...I imagine because one of the listings in there has such a lengthy description. It's happened with other search terms, but I can't remember what they were. It isn't totally bothersome since I can just scroll, but thought you'd want to know.

The stats on top of the messages are accessed via "User CP" at the left of the green menu bar above the posts. Click on "Edit profile" once you are there, and you will see where to make changes. Don't forget to click "save changes" at the bottom. ;)

I'm really not concerned about it for right this minute, but just didn't want 3 weeks to pass and it still to be saying that I'm at that weight/time on Low Carb. How do I go about fixing this? I do have weights listed for each day as well as some other info for each day of the last week. I'm not sure why it's not registering it all.

But if I keep slogging along hunting and pecking, I will lose my enthusiasm because I can do it faster with paper and pencil. My low computer skills are obviously a detriment here, which is why I put people who have a clue on pedestals!! At any rate, probably once I get an archive of 'favourites' going, it'll save a great deal of time. I'll examine the menu on the left side more carefully,

Okay here goes. After reading your instructions tonight I went to the top of the screen and clicked on the "My Plan" shortcut. And then clicked on "Daily Entry" on the left side of the screen. From the "Select From Food Category" pull down menu under the "Quick Selection" window, I opened the pull down and selected "Beef Products" and then clicked on the browse button next to it. The first page it took me to started with "Beef, variety meats and by-products, suet, raw". Then I went above that and clicked on the 2 of Page 1 of 15. The top entry was "Shortening frying (heavy duty), beef tallow and cottonseed. Clicking on 3 also brought up shortening entries, but when I clicked on 1 again it now started with "Salt, Table".

Now I clicked on the back arrow until it brought me back to the window with the "Select From Food Category" list. This time I chose Sausage & Luncheon Meats". The first window started with "Oscar Mayer, sandwich spread (pork, chicken, beef). Page 2 of Page 1 of 5 started with the shortening entry again.

These steps were done today, so it has now happened 2 days in a row and my computer was signed off between sessions.

I'm trying to figure out why when I go to the "recorded BF" tab under "Progress & Charts", the second graph is labeled "Recorded LBM vs BF, Aug-2006 - Dec-1969"?? I wasn't even alive in 1969!! So is the chart displaying the right thing (Aug-Oct 2006) and the label is just off or is it all off?

Oh, and my "calculated BF" always comes up as a red X box, when I hit show picture, it doesn't change.

when I had an after dinner snack I entered it as snack II but since I didnt have a snack I it went to the after breakfast spot

Hi,
Not knowing what has already been reported I'll let you know two things I've noticed.
1) The chart that shows the weight loss indicates a date of Feb 07 when in fact it is still December 06 which is the date I am entering for.
2) You need to refresh the screen for the chart to show the new entry.
Neither is critical to the functioning of this great feature.
Thanks very much for making My Plan available! We appreciate your efforts.

[Talmidah]

I cannot change the progress in my weight loss. It is not changing the information at all. I am now 133lbs and entered it several times

[1stBreath]

Like Talmidah, I am having troubles with the weight summary too.

[VoodooGal]

The Weight Summary is currently not functioning for me either... it will save my weight, but it won't chart it on the graph!

[VoodooGal]

Just noticed it doesn't display on my "stats" over to the left either. Still an excellent feature of this site!

[VoodooGal]

Just kidding... I thought I had tried refreshing like Archie had suggested above, but I hadn't. Works beautifully now and I'm using this post as a dual-purpose to make sure it updated on my stats displayed to the right.

[reshkool]

Hello,

I am not sure if anybody already 'Entered' this bug. If so then I am sorry for 'Reentering' it.

This is regarding the 'Weight Chart'. Whenever I add my new weights into this tool, my weight chart (graph) does not refresh immediately. Not even after refreshing the page. It reflect changes after couple of hours.

It would be nice to refresh it immediately. :-)

Thanks

I am new to my plan, so I may be doing something wrong, nothing showed up on the monthly view page. The daily summary information is there, but the monthly view is blank.

I have a problem with Custom Foods. I entered a custom food Protein Shake-Carb Solutions with all the nutrients I have listed in my cookbook. And that is fine, however, when I enter it as a food for the day, the protein is listed as 8.6, the number for fat; fat is 3.4, the amount of fiber; the PECC should be 3.6, not 1.5 and the calories should be 169, not 71. Did I do something wrong or is this a bug?

:idea: Also when entering some food can we have a listing for "one serving" instead of 100 g or tbs? I have a cookbook on my computer (Now Your Cooking) that I enter foods from and the total recipes don't have the food amts listed by grams but by servings.

For the first question, the numbers are relative to the portion selected. If you select a portion equal to the nutrition label, you should get numbers equal to those listed on the label.

For the second question, yes, you can enter a name for the serving. Just click the "Custom size" link in the custom foods form.

Hi tamarian,

I just updated my weight and body fat in the My PLAN section, but I can't figure out how to update the charts so they show all my data. (The weight chart has entries from June-Sept., but the chart only shows data through Aug. The BF% chart doesn't show any data points, but I've entered a couple.)

It may be user error, but I'd appreciate some guidance. Thanks!

[Ghoulia]

Dunno if this is the right place, but here it goes!

Seems as though things aren't being calculated right.

If a gram of protein is 4 cals, a gram of fat is 9 cals and a gram of carb is 4 cals, then THIS: 1.7carb 1.2pro 22.2fat = 207 cals is WRONG.

1.7X4=6.8 1.2X4=4.8 22.2X9=199.8 then the TOTAL CALORIES should be 211.4

I just added up all my foods doing that for all my entries and they are ALL WRONG.

Now, granted, it's only off by a few calories here and there, but that adds up and at least the addition should be right!

I'm only bein' persnickety because I have a target to hit (of cals, protein, fat and carb) and right now i'm ten calories OVER and it ain't so! It just doesn't add up correctly.

And what I'm adding up is NOT a custom food.

Thanks!

The 4/4/9 numbers you're using are approximations for the actual values. The values used are based on the USDA database.

Example: http://forum.lowcarber.org/myplan.php?do=details&item_id=23547

At the bottom, notice the factors used:

Energy Factors
Nitrogen factor 6.25
CHO (carbs) factor 3.87
Protein factor 4.27
Fat factor 9.02

So the tool is actually being more "persnickety" :)

I need the link directly to the food item you're trying to calculate, like this link is for beef chunk: http://forum.lowcarber.org/myplan.php?do=details&item_id=23547

If you're trying to calculate the totals for the day (because you linked to a totals page), it calculates each food item differently, based on the USDA values for each food item, each with it's own energy factors.

There's a large PDF file on the USDA site explaining all these factors.

Wa'il

[Ghoulia]

Yeah, it's this:

http://forum.lowcarber.org/myplan.php?do=details&item_id=8244

It says 30 carbs, but isn't counting them in the calorie count.

Oooof.

I dunno how they can do that - the company, not you guys.

25 grams of carbs, then 11 grams of "other carbohydrates", so they do something wonky with the fiber to come out with that calorie count?

I think the most reasonable thing to do is NEVER EAT IT AGAIN!!!

Thanks again for all your help,

Julia

Just so you don't think I'm completely a freak of nature - I'm on a cut, and I need to hit my macros of 1400 cals, 114protein, 86fat, 44carbs and 25 grams needs to be fiber. So there ya go! Not a freak show here, just tryin' to do what I'm s'posed to do!

[LOL79]

This might be a small bug to check out --

In the cardio log, it says I burned 156 calories for today's exercise. However, on the "Daily Summary" page, it says I burned 167 calories for today's exercise.

The 167 is what I was burning formerly (when my weight was higher), but its not correct currently.

I've checked a few pages back, and this is a patterned error.


BTW -- It's a great program, and extremely helpful. Thanks!

Hi there. I think there is a problem with walnut oil calories in the database. Every time I add a table spoon of walnutoil, I've got an outrageous 3000 extra calories that pop up. it should be 9 calories x 15 mL= 135 calories or thereabouts.

Looks like an error in the version we use of the USDA, and it happens tablespoon size, not with teaspoon of Walnut Oil. For now, best thing to do is replace 1 Tablesppon with 3 teaspoons to get the correct data.

Hi, Now I'm worried about the data for flax seed. The carb by difference data for 100g flax seed comes up really high, when there is only about 2g of sugars and 27 grams of fiber in the stuff. Is this another error in the USDA database?

You can always go to the USDA link to double check when you think there maybe an error:

http://www.nal.usda.gov/fnic/foodcomp/search/

Make sure you are comparing the same iten with the NDB number, which is shown to distinguish similar items.
Wa'il

[TiredFedUP]

Yup there is a mistake. That can't be the right carb by difference.



ndb 12220 Seeds, flaxseed

[TimesTwo]

It's correct. For every 100 grams of flaxseeds, there are 28.88 grams of total carbs, 27.3 grams of which are fiber. When it says "by difference", it doesn't mean "net". I believe it's referring to the way in which they came up with the carb count. They didn't actually test how many carbs are in it. Instead, they measured the amounts of protein and fat, and a few other things like water and ash. They assumed that anything left over was a carbohydrate...hence the "by difference".

Ah, here's a better explanation!
By deduction, the FDA defines carbohydrates as anything that is not protein, fat, moisture, or ash. For the low carb dieter, this 'Carbohydrates by Difference' approach does not distinguish between conventionally-recognized carbs (which should be avoided) and those that are acceptable for all low carb dieters.source (http://www.lowcarbnexus.com/articles/carbsthesame.html)

So, 3 strips, which is what I usually eat, should show as about .4g carbs and 126 calories. (There is some rounding of numbers done when recalculating.)

I noticed a problem tonight in the following item:

http://forum.lowcarber.org/myplan.php?do=details&item_id=10124

I entered 2 rashers at breakfast and 2 rashers at dinner, and the calories for breakfast were 200 less than for 2 rashers at dinner time. I also felt that nearly 400 calories seemed quite high for 2 rashers of bacon, and I did an independent internet search which gave a much lower count for 2 rashers (although that was not fried). I realise that some rashers are thicker or fattier, but I thought I might mention it in case the calorie count in MY PLAN is too high per rasher.

I'd just like to say thanks for the tool. I cannot tell you how much help it has been to me. I wouldn't have progressed so far in three months without it.

You didn't accidentally click on Cooked bacon for one entry and Raw bacon for the other, did you? The counts are quite different. The counts are different between pan-fried bacon and microwaved bacon, too. Just a suggestion. :)

Well, the numbers you gave work out properly, so I wouldn't worry about it.

25.4 X 4 = 101.6
34.9 X 9 = 314.1
0.1 X 4 = 0.4

Add the products together and the sum should match, or at least be very close to, the Kcals shown on the label. I get a sum of 416.1, which indicates that the numbers on the label are pretty accurate.

In addition, American cheddar cheese has 0.36g of carbs per ounce, so your English cheddar is right in the ballpark at less than 1g per ounce. I think you should relax and enjoy the cheese. Especially since Tamarian has already confirmed that there is a bug in the part of the program that produces those little icons. JMO, though. :)

Can you tell me how the weight stats change on the top, right-hand side of my posts? I record my current weight almost daily, but the stat showing on the post I wrote today is a weight from two days ago. Does this update on a schedule or should it update the day I add a new weight? Thanks!!

Thanks!!The stats in the upper right hand corner of your posts are part of your Profile, and aren't updated by My P.L.A.N.

To update those numbers, click on User CP on the left end of the green tool bar. There, you will see a menu on the left of the screen. Click on Edit Profile, fill in your correct stats, then scroll down all the way to the bottom of the page and click Save. :)

You need to click "refresh" before the new weight shows on your chart. :)

you've probably already heard that the C/P/F percentages near the top of the 'daily entry' box for meals does its math incorrectly.
