Cursor while loop returning every value but the last

I am using a while loop to iterate through a cursor and then outputing the longitude and latitude values of every point within the database.

For some reason it is not returning the last (or first depending on if I use Cursor.MoveToLast) set of longitude and latitude values in the cursor.

Here is my code:

public void loadTrack() {
SQLiteDatabase db1 = waypoints.getWritableDatabase();
Cursor trackCursor = db1.query(TABLE_NAME, FROM, "trackidfk=1", null, null, null,ORDER_BY); 

    trackCursor.moveToFirst();
    while (trackCursor.moveToNext()) {
        Double lat = trackCursor.getDouble(2);
        Double lon = trackCursor.getDouble(1);
        //overlay.addGeoPoint( new GeoPoint( (int)(lat*1E6),  (int)(lon*1E6)));
        System.out.println(lon);
        System.out.println(lat);
    }
}

From this I am getting:

Answer

moveToNext() has two features. It returns a boolean signifying that there is a next, but at the same time it goes ahead and moves the cursor.

public void loadTrack() {
SQLiteDatabase db1 = waypoints.getWritableDatabase();
Cursor trackCursor = db1.query(TABLE_NAME, FROM, "trackidfk=1", null, null, null,ORDER_BY); 

    trackCursor.moveToFirst();
    do {
        Double lat = trackCursor.getDouble(2);
        Double lon = trackCursor.getDouble(1);
        //overlay.addGeoPoint( new GeoPoint( (int)(lat*1E6),  (int)(lon*1E6)));
        System.out.println(lon);
        System.out.println(lat);
    } while (trackCursor.moveToNext());
}
