Combining Food Items

[JReynolds]

I'm sure this must have asked before.. Is there no way to combine foods that are in the existing DB into a single item??

Example - Salad

Seems that I need to enter each element manually

I used an app several years back that had what I would consider to be a fairly basic feature.

Hi @JReynolds, it's great to see a new member around!

Let me share that we have the option to create specific meals on the fitbit.com dashboard. I found this really helpful as when I'm cooking, I'm able to add all the individual ingredients only once and if I cook the same meal another day, I can add just by choosing it from Favorites. Here are the steps:

1. Go to your online dashboard and log in to your Fitbit account.
2. Tap on "Log" tab at the top of the screen.
3. On the food logging page, find Favorites on the right side and click the Meals tab.
4. Click Save, then in the Add Foods section you can begin to add the individual foods for this meal. After each food item, click the red Add to Meal button.
5. When you are done, click the red I'm done button.

Give it a try and let me know how it goes!  😎

Hi @athomasimage. It's great to see you here in the forums. I'm sorry for my delay.

Thanks for joining this thread and let me help you with your inquiry. As mentioned above, currently you can create a meal with different ingredients in your online dashboard at fitbit.com. Please follow the steps described in my post to create a meal. Once it's logged, it'll appear in the Fitbit app.

I'll be around if you have another question.
