Session Time-out
Another property of this site that is common to most Internet sites is that your session will "time out" after a certain period of inactivity. We have set this site to allow up to around 45 minutes of inactivity, which should be plenty of time for you to make your selections and review your results. If your session times out, simply log in again. You may need to re-enter some food items and/or physical activities depending on when your session "timed out."
