When you submit your feeds to google webmaster tools sitemap, it adds only 25 posts to the sitemap. Suppose i want to add all my posts to sitemap i have to give http://funlounge.blogspot.com/atom.xml?orderby=updated&max-results=1000 but if i have feedburner enabled it redirects to the feedburner page which still gives 25 posts only. Due to this i couldnt include all my posts in sitemap.
Solution: To solve this you have to remove the current rss feed link in your blog and add feedburner link. Next you have to add the link i have given below to your sitemap to solve. I have given below step by step how to do this.
Step 1: Go to Dashboard -->Setings>Site Feed.Clear the text in Post Feed Redirect Url and make sure it is empty.
Step 2: Go to Dashboard-->Template-->Edit HTML
Step 3: Click the 'Expand Widgets Templates' box.
Step 4:
Find:
<b:includable id='feedLinks'> <b:if cond='data:blog.pageType != "item"'> <!-- Blog feed links --> <b:if cond='data:feedLinks'> <div class='blog-feeds'> <b:include data='feedLinks' name='feedLinksBody'/> </div> </b:if>
Step 5:
Comment and enter your feedburner rss feed in between div like http://feeds.feedburner.com/Funlounge
<!-- <div class='blog-feeds'> <b:include data='feedLinks' name='feedLinksBody'/> </div> --> <div class='blog-feeds'> </div>
Step 6:
Go to Webmaster Tools --> Dashboard -->Your Site -->Sitemap -->Add Sitemap -->Choose Type --> Add General Web Sitemap -->Enter in My Sitemap Url is textbox the following atom.xml?orderby=updated&max-results=1000 and press Add General Web Sitemap button.

Please Comment the code given in step 5 in your blog.

And then add the following. Instead of FunLounge Rss Feedburner path give yours.
<div class='blog-feeds'>
<a href='http://feeds.feedburner.com/Funlounge' >Rss</a>
</div>
