Has anyone tried importing recipes? I just did this with a favorite recipe and it's telling me it's 11000 calories..serving size says 4 servings...but doesn't indicate the size of servings...

    You have to double check each entry and edit as needed. The 800 calorie garlic is obviously way off, for example.

    When you make the dish, weigh each ingredient raw. After you cook it, weigh it again for the total cooked weight. Subtract the weight of the dish and make that total gram size the number of servings. Like if your meal ends up being 1000 grams, make it 1000 servings.

    When you dish it out, you just log the number of grams/servings in your bowl (251 or whatever).

    Or you can just separate it into 4 equal servings and log as you eat.
