    You just log the amounts. MFP does the calculations.

    Explain what you are doing? What do you mean by calculating? Are you using the recipe builder or just entering foods? I don't really understand your question and maybe if you gave a few more details people could help better. :)

    Use a food scale. You won't have to calculate anything.
