• More improvements to exercise feature (7/9/08)
  1. There are now 32 common exercises.
  2. Bicycling calorie estimates are now based on speed--there are 3 fields: time, miles and mph. Fill out any two of them. If you edit previously-entered bicycling, 15 MPH will be used. Note that the old setting of 8 METS was very high--equivalent to about 20 MPH--so those calorie estimates were probably too high.
  3. Calorie estimate for running based on speed will be next.
• Improvements to exercise feature (6/30/08)
  1. You can change or delete exercises that you have added.
  2. Calorie equivalent can now be entered in place of the number of minutes, E.G. "100 cal" or "100c".
  3. METS value of the exercise is displayed.
• Reminder if you have not entered weight in 7 days. (6/30/08)
• Reminder if you are not using Favorite Food feature. (6/30/08)
• Demo feature improved. Now has some predefined favorites, and one week of food eaten. (6/22/08)
