enter your own food info in the database or use the next closest thing if it's not there?

I enter as much as I can if it is not there. I have also been known to update existing entries if they are off on the counts instead of putting in the same name w/ "correct info"... sometimes things have changed - especially if they previously had trans fats and now they don't. But I like to be as accurate as possible so I enter my own...

I would enter my own food. If it's not in the database, I would create an entry for it. It helps me to stay on top of my tracking and being as true as possible to my calorie intake

I try to enter it if I know it's something I'll be eating more than just once or twice.

I enter everything myself unless the database has EXACTLY the same thing w/ same info.

If I have the food packaging there with me or at home, I will enter it into the database. I want my count to be as accurate as possible.

I also enter the food in if it is not in the database...Most times I always cross reference the items if they already exist in the database with my own nutritional info, or google it! :happy:

I enter everything myself unless the database has EXACTLY the same thing w/ same info.

I don't eat a lot of prepackaged food, so I end up going to www.nutritiondata.com and doing a recipe analysis, and then I enter it in over here.

If it is in the database, unless it matches exactly, I will enter it myself.

If I can't find something I create it....cutting corners always leads to slipping with me so I try and be as precise as possible

Same here!

I enter 90% of my own stuff....but sometimes I will get info out of the data base ONLY if it matches the nutrition facts.
