Hi! If I want to include when I breastfed/pumped throughout the day how would I add that? Thanks

    You can add it to your food diary as "Breastfeeding - -500 Cal Per Day, 1 day" you can also add it as exercise, but then it gets posted that you burned calories nursing, which always felt weird to me. You can also find different calorie amounts in their database if you're only doing supplemental feedings.

    If I was to do it again, I would just customize it and add 500 to my daily goal.

    Editing to add the reason - when you add it as a snack, you don't get any protein/carbs/sugar/fat goal increase so it looks like you're always over, even though calories are in line. And when you add it as exercise, well, it's just not. ;P
