Can I copy food logs from one day to the next?

[VIvianM1]

I eat the same meals every day. Is there a way to just log all my meals once and copy/paste it over to following days?

Sorry no there is not. but if you make then favorites its easy add them.

Or create Meals one for Breakfast if its always the same

One for Lunch etc. Makes it fast to add.

thank you! How do I create a Meal though? All I see is the ability to add Frequent, Recent or Custom foods...

It would be nice if we could! I eat the same meals all the time and it's such a pain to put them into Fitbit's log. I've just decided to continue using MyNetDiary for all meals and then at the end of the day, I put my total daily calories (from that day) as one entry into Fitbit. Especially since I can't see the mineral/ vitamin breakdown like I can in MyNetDiary... I figure it doesn't matter. Fitbit really needs to revamp their "calorie entry/ food library". 😏

You can create meals in the dashboard online. But it doesn't allow you the same benefit in the app. You have to do it and log it on the web to use the meals portion. It is very helpful for people like yourself to eat the same thing day in and day out.

It's great to see you here @VIvianM1, @DGressette, @WendyB and @mvan231 thanks for stopping by.

As mentioned you can make your food favorite in order to make them easier to log. About creating custom meals, you just need to do the following from a computer:

1. On your dashboard click the Log tab (or go to http://www.fitbit.com/foods/log). 
2. To find a food, enter the name in the search box; you can enter a brand name to narrow down the list. 
3. If you don't see a matching result, there is a link to Add New Food in the suggested results list. Click that to add a food. 
4. In the pop-up, click on the Add Nutritional Information button if you want to add nutritional content. If you only want to track calories, enter them and click Add Food. 

I also recommend taking a look at the Copy food log from one day to another request, vote for it and leave your comment.

I hope this helps, catch you later.

Sparkpeople has this feature you can copy foods to the next day, it's awesome, may be fitbit should consider this in the app.
