Hello, everyone! I I always prepare food at home, but now I faced a problem with counting calories. How do you do this? May be use some websites or apps? I use one website in my own language but there you can find only proteins, carbs and fats.

    One of the great parts of MFP is that there is a recipe builder that will provide the information for all your fav recipes.

    There are 2 problems I have with it.... the time to actually sit down and enter all my recipes, so I'm basically doing them as I need to, and second is a serving size. It really only gives you the option for "serves # of people". Well my serving is much smaller than my son's (just for an example). To help with this, I have tried to divide each of my recipes into a my size serving so I know how much that is each time, and gives a semi accurate portion.
