How do I get the calories burned to calculate ?
I'm new to the site and loving the nutrition tracking part!! But I can't seem to figure out how to add my own exercise and calculate the calories burned. I see a note that says "Calories will calculate when you hit the Submit Results button - Where is this button???
For example: I had a calf injury recently and I'm limited from my normal exercising. I've been tracking my walking with a pedometer and want to add/track the cals burned, miles etc... Anyway to do this?

Thanks a bunch!

Do you have unsubmitted workouts from past dates? If you have unsubmitted workouts from past dates the site will not allow you to enter actual results for the present. Go back to the earliest unsubmitted workout and submit them in order up until the present date and you should be able to submit your actual results for the current date. Please let me know if this does not help.

At the moment the site does not allow manual entry of calories burned without an exercise attached.

Is this being worked on at the moment? People using heart rate monitors/pedometer and the various gaming exercises (EA Active etc) should be able to submit these workouts on an individual basis. Surely a "user entry" where they submit time and calories burnt would be easy enough to do on the site. The benefit to the site and the users would be obvious. Great site otherwise.
