??? for those who use MyFitnessPal...

When you add in your exercise for the day, is there a way to change the fact that it adds in more calories?  I just looked @ mine and it said that I had like 140 gms of carbs left for the day! I AM NOT GOING TO EAT that many carbs!!!  I have changed my personal goals to reflect my NUTs suggestions of 100gm protein, 40 gms carbs & 30 gms of fat, but when I put in my exercise it jacks everything up!!!  


HELP!!!

hummmm. I need to check it out. I just started MyFitnessPay yesterday. it does not make since.

FYI, you can add Sugar to your Calories, Carbs ,Protein and Fat list.

I just ignore the goal column and calorie advice. I just use it to total my intake and leave it at that. Adding exercise also jacks up the protein too but i never noticed the carbs before.

When you add the exercise, change the calories on that screen to 1 (not zero, 1) and it won't add all the extra.

I personally don't ever worry about that... I use it simply for logging food to see where I am for the day...

It just does that in case your one of those dieters or athletes (non-WLS folks) that wants the leeway of eating more and burning it up with exercise. I don't think you can stop it from doing that adding calories stuff so just ignore it. That's what I do.
