in Recipes
I entered a recipe from a cookbook that says 2 servings which is what I entered when first asked for servings. But at the end it seemed to imply that this was the number of calories for 1 serving. I am confused. If I havea recipe for a.certaon nu.ber of servings should I divide all the ingredients to reflect 1 serving when I enter it?

    It tells you how many calories are in one serving, regardless of how many servings a recipe makes. When you add the food to your diary, you add one serving of it (unless you're eating a different amount). You don't have to divide anything. The Recipes section does it for you.

    If you are saving meals in the My Meals section, however, you'll have to divide ingredients based on what you ate. I find the Recipes section to be easier for this reason.
