    haha, I add my booze. I usually use it when I search for something and the calories that come up are not what they should be (under or over), quicker then adding the recipe!

    LOL haha well I don't generally notice but for me, it's usually something like a marinade (like one you mix with oil, water and such, McCormicks..) I usually note it...but lately I've been lazy ;)

    I immediately revoke their friendship. Can't be tolerating any of this 'quick add' nonsense.

    This made me snort out loud for some reason...I've only done quick add one time, and I don't remember why, but I felt like it would be assumed that I had eaten something so horrible, like extra cheese pizza topped with high fat hamburger meat and a pile of salt with a side order of chocolate covered hot dogs.

    I try to be fairly specific with booze. It's sort of like bragging. :laugh:

    For me quick add is usually when I log something out of the database which I don't fully trust, and my gut feel tells me to quick-add a few more calories to keep the accounting fairly honest.

    I always assume it's the at a friend's house or restaurant situation when you just don't know what all is in the food you are eating.

    I just always assume it's a restaurant not in the database. BUT now I will assume booze.

    When MFP starts putting traditional Scandinavian delicacies in the database, I will stop quick-adding.

    I've never assumed, but I've never used it, either....

    Dear Tragedy of the Commons,

    Why don't you do the work?

    Cheers.

    I quick added a high-end estimate on things like the All U Can Eat Super Happy Terrific Family King Chinese Buffet, but now I just don't bother logging on days when I don't want to bother logging every last thing I eat.

    I used it when I went over on cals the day before. I used the quick add calories facility on the following day's diary to allow for the calories I had gone over by the previous day.

    I have a special section for booze. I take it seriously.

    I don't really pay attention to that, when I use it its for things I am too lazy too search for but know about how many calories it is.

    When I use it, it's because I've eaten something with lots of ingredients that I don't want to build in to a recipe or list individually, usually at a restaurant, etc.


    Sometimes I'll quick add 1000 calories when I have McDs at lunch.

    I always just assume it's chocolate covered marzipan.

    Why? Oh, no particular reason....:blushing:
