Make pre-logging easier

Hello, I eat the same breakfast almost every single weekday. I would love there to be an easier way to pre-log food, for example, logging my breakfast for multiple days at once instead of one day at a time.

    Thanks for writing and for your suggestion. Our team hopes to expand that date choices in a future update. I can see how it would be helpful!

    Yes! I'm that way with lunches. I could fill in a whole year of lunches at once, and then tweak the few that are different.

    Maybe have it so we enter a breakfast or lunch, and then we have the option of populating 5 days, a week, a month, 6 months, a year.

    Two ways to do it via your diary.

    To copy entire meals, go to your diary and click the 3 dots:

    Choose to copy today’s meal to tomorrow, or yesterday’s meal to today. Or simply save as a meal and name it to retrieve it anytime in the future.

    There’s also a fairly new option to add a single food days out in advance:

    I do the first two, but haven't seen the third option.

    With the first two, I have to go through the process of adding it to each day.
