Is there a way to edit calories?

Hello,

I have added receipies to my Food database and it pulls the correct ingredients, but when I look at servings it will say something outlandish such as Servings 1 is 2870 calories per serving, so i have to adjust it, so if the reciepe serves 4, but 1 serving is 558 calories, I have to adjust it to say I had 5 servings so the calorie count is 574 which is closer to what 1 serving of calories would be.

Is there any other way to adjust this or am I doing something wrong?

    The initial calorie count it shows after adding the ingredients is 1 serving = the entire recipe. You edit this on the next page by putting in how many servings are in the recipe. Then when you enter this into your diary, you put how many actual servings you ate. It's not a perfect system and likely won't be exact, but it will be close. The
