I am new to community chatting and new to MFP using Garmin fitbit. I need to loose weight for medical reasons and wondered if there was anyway to add all the medications I take to the daily diary. I am sure they have some impact on the body. Any ideas would be great. Have a great day.

    You can add anything to the food diary. But do a search first. There seems to be plenty of drugs listed already. Just out of curiosity, I searched for a cholesterol medication and found several listings in MFP's list. But, none show any nutritional values at all. I think it might be very difficult to find the nutritional value of prescription drugs. Maybe check with your doctor.

    Hope this helped some.

    I take two prescription medications and a couple supplements and added a category on my food diary for it. For me it wasn't about the nutritional value of the pills, even the supplements, it's more of an accountability thing since I've been known to forget to take them. You can add me if you'd like so you can see my diary. Best of luck to you!

    Good idea, ALNIBY. :)
