Custom meal

[Dawnnorvell]

I know we are able to log custom food. But I think there needs to be an option for a custom meal. It is even more useful now that the app has the ability to track micronutrients. Those that are trying to eat well, lose weight or just get healthier, cooking healthy food at home instead of eating out is vital. Currently we found have to log every single ingredient in a custom dish. The only other option is to figure the totals manually and then enter a number value to the calorie counter. However when you do this, it does count in the logging of micronutrients. If there was a custom meal option, we could enter all of the ingredients along with their nutritional information and then enter the number of servings it made, which would then give us proper numbers to log. Those of us who are trying to cook healthy meals at home will make the same meal alot of times. So having it already entered into our app would be very helpful. Right now I just figure it myself and divide by the number of servings it made and then enter the number value into my calories. But I really do like seeing the micronutrient numbers. And I would love to see them work together.

@Dawnnorvell, I moved this post to the App Help Forum, since it is not a hardware issue.  It will get more response here.

Is it possible to create custom meals in the android app? I can't see an obvious way to do it. 

Many thanks

Have you found a good solution. I am learning to count my calories. A few days ago I created a meal for the week. Added all ingredients as a whole and then couldn’t portion it out. It was just one big meal. I had to then go in and modify ingredients as a percentage to get a single serving. Kind of a pain! I would like to be able to enter a total quantity when it’s completed.

I can edit the Meals on my computer, but not on my Android App. This is frustrating.
