What does 'TO BURN 200 KCAL' mean in my diary?

Nutracheck sets everyone a daily target of 200 calories to burn in exercise – this is to encourage all members to be more active each day, as this is not only beneficial for weight loss, but for general health too.

This shows in your diary next to 'TO BURN' as a greyed out 200 at the start of each day. As you add exercise to your diary throughout the day, the calories you burn will show in purple next to 'BURNED'. When you exceed your 200 calorie target, the grey figure next to 'TO BURN' changes to a positive green number, showing the number of calories you've gone over the 200 target by.

If you exceed the exercise target, the extra calories burned in green will not be added to your calorie allowance for the day as you are using the Separate Diary View. If the activity you are doing is extra exercise above your usual routine, then you should consider eating back these additional calories over your 200 calorie exercise target. This will ensure your net intake is not too low. The Combined Diary View does this automatically and may be more suitable if you are quite active.
