Hi moma55,
If I understand what page you're viewing, (I'm thinking it is the "My Diet Calendar Overview" ) you see the calories you've eaten for the day under the "Food (kcal)" column. Then it gives you the %RDI and the Nutritional Summary, then the "Exercise (kcal)" and then finally the "Net (kcal)" and if you're trying to lose weight, you want to see the little arrow in the 'down' position and be colored green.
This means that when you subtract your calories of food eaten from the calories burned (depending on how you set this up - could be calories from exercise and the amount of calories your body needs to burn just to exist) then the result is in the Net calorie column.
Hope this helps, if not, let us know. Good luck! Joyce

ECO Atkins for a skinny vegetarian with a belly
This would be a good question for the nutritionist over on the atkins.com boards. Colette Heimowitz is her name. Post your question with her name in the title and she will respond.

Weekends are hard for me too, but last weekend I made sure to come on here and record everything and that helped. I don't know if you record on weekends or not, but if you don't it may help. I ...

c-section aftermath
I have 4 kids, I had my twins by C-Section and then two natural VBACs. I have noticed an improvement since I started working out my abs. I doubt it's doing anything for the loose skin itself, but ...
