Mine is on the way to becoming one! He joined MFP literally yesterday to start tracking his food and work on body reccomposition, and I’ve spent the last two days answering questions like ”what kind of yoghurt did we put in that food?” and ”how big was that yoghurt container?” (he did the cooking while I was cleaning the kitchen) and he even texted me at work about how he should log the restaurant lunch he had at work. What I wanted to ask was how tf would I know when his question was about logging ”nepalese food” without any specifics and I didn’t see even a picture of it to eyeball portion size. Instead, I politely instructed him to look for entries for rice, naan bread and any sauces he had separately. We have a food scale, maybe one day he’ll turn to that and reading the packaging instead of just asking me everything.
Clearly my husband at least thinks I’m in the zone.
Re-reading this, clearly I had some frustrations about the constant questions that I needed to vent. It’s great that he’s starting to use MFP and that he asks for help, and in the future he can also become a well-trained MFP OH who supports me with my logging4 -
I love this thread.
I use the MFP recipe builder and weigh the end product. So I’m in the zone because I know what my saucepans and oven dishes weigh1
