Newbie - a couple of questions please

Hiya

Could anyone tell me how many millilitres of water is in the standard cup measurement in the diary?

Also, when I'm using the app, if I add something to the food diary, then realise I have it in the wrong meal, can I change it to another meal or do I have to delete and input again.

And, last one, when adding food to the diary in the app, is there a way to change the quantity after it's been added to the diary or do I have to delete and re-enter?

Thanks,

Debbie

Hi Debbie. Welcome! I'm new here too but I think I might can help answer a couple of these questions.

1. Water. I believe they count a "glass of water" as 8 ounces. That's the standard I've always heard. So 8 oz is...roughly like 237 milliters.

2. I don't know how to change the meals around. I would just delete if I messed it up and cared. As long as I'm logging it for the day, I'm happy.

3. Changing quantity on the app is easy on my phone. I open up the diary and click on the arrow to the right of the food I wish to edit. It takes me to the original nutrition page that I saw when I originally selected and added that food. Then I change it on the drop down menu under servings and hit save. It's awesome bc you can do half-serving, whatever, and mfp just plugs in the numbers for me so I don't have to.

Good luck on your journey!

Click on the food item in your diary and you will get the box to change the quantity or meal.
