late night eating- what day to track on

fastmomonthego158

Do you guys track food based on the 24 hour clock or base it off of when you wake up and fall asleep?

For example last night before I went to bed at midnight I had pizza. Do I track that as yesterdays food or todays?

I usually track based on when I wake up/go to sleep. In the long run, it will all pretty much even out I guess.

I do 24 hours. It is easier for me that way. I work graveyard though. It is just a choice as to what works best for you personally.

Log it on the day you eat it, and perhaps just tally your calories weekly ? Seeing your weekly tally of calories is a nice feature of the app.

I add it to the previous night

( Then I don't have to look at it all day lol )

I am in nursing school, work nights/ long shifts a lot, so I track in a 24hr period but an odd one! I track from about 5am - 4:59am. I set it up as my meal names, its easier for me because there are days I eat the bulk of my food (between 12pm and 2am) and other days like when I have school I eat the bulk between 5am - 8pm it all depends on my schedule but it changes enough that I don't like having "yesterdays" calories on today :P It took me a while to figure that part out but I love how I have it set up now!

Just my opinion hope it helps!!

Depends on my sleep schedule. Before sleep = the day before. Waking up at night and eating does not happen to me. If it did, I'd probably count it as the next day.
