Hello @JulieGill, have a warm welcome to the Fitbit Community, it's great to have you on board. It's nice to see you too @ACG, I hope you're doing well. Smiley Happy

@JulieGill, thanks for bringing this to my attention, I understand you did not log your food for the past 4 days, but don't worry, you can log them now through the Fitbit app without inconveniences. Please follow these steps:

  1. Go to the Food tile and tap on the plus (+) sign to start adding your log.
  2. Start logging your food as you normally do, searching for it or selecting a Custom food. 
  3. On the next screen, under Date, instead of saving the food under Today, use the dropdown selections to choose the date of your log.
  4. Tap on Save to finish.

I hope this can be helpful, if there's anything else I can do for you, please feel free to reply, I'll be happy to help.
