Entering a Custom Food: |
To create a custom food, select "Create Custom Food" in the bottom right hand corner. You will have the option to select the type of custom entry (single food, combo meal, or recipe).
Tap the screen to make the selection. Give your custom single food/meal/recipe a name.
Enter each item that is in your sandwich. Doing this allows the diary to calculate the number of calories in each serving. Select the number of servings. Continue to add as many food items as necessary to make your custom entry as accurate as possible. Finally, you will have the option to add this as a "Favorite." A favorite food item might be one that you eat often. If you eat something more than once or twice a week, we recommend tapping the star |
Hunger and Mood Entry |
After each meal you should select the "Hunger & Mood" button on the lower left of your screen. Using the slider bars, determine your hunger level both before and after the meal. Determine if your meal was mindful, portion controlled, or healthy...we hope it's all three! Select "Done." Next, record your mood for that meal (happy, sad, angry, elated, busy). Remember, monitoring your dietary intake has been proven to help with weight loss success. |
