Food Log

[Morg17]

So I love logging the food I eat to keep track of my calories throughout the day. I love cooking so a lot of stuff, I make from scratch. It can be a real pain in the butt having to add every ingredient individually. I think it would be super helpful if there was a feature in the app to let the user create "meals" so to speak and save them to keep that "meal" so we don't have to add every ingredient every time we eat that meal. For example with tacos adding everything you put on the taco every time you eat it is a pain. Is there already a way to do this? If not, it'd be a huge help for future updates!

There is no way to create a meal in the app. But you can create a Meal on the Website and it will show in the app.

Or create a new food and just add the NI information to it and log it that way

There is a way to do this, but you have to connect your Fitbit up with another app, such as MyFitnessPal, which is what I use.  They both sync with each other whenever information is added to your daily profile, such as calories burned, food intake, exercise, etc...  I use the MyFitnessPal for my food log, and it does allow you to save recipes so you can avoid exactly what you're trying to get around.  If you go to the MyFitnessPal website and create your profile, you'll see a Food tab at the top.  Click that, which then gives you other tabs, one of which is My Recipes.  This tab allows you to either create your own recipes manually, or if you have a recipe online that you like, it will let you copy the URL of that website and paste it to your page.  I have found this saves me a ton of time!  And that way the calories are consistently counted as well!  Hope you have good luck!
