My flatmate made me taste the dinner she cooked...a mouthful of chicken, pasta and veggies with sauce...how the hell do I log that or should I ignore it?

This is probably a stupid question!

  • I wouldn't bother...it isn't worth worrying about!:smile:
  • quick add calories?

    tablespoons are generally 10g
    teasponns are 5g

    or you could quick add a few calories if you feel the need...
  • It's not a stupid question. :smile: I tasted some Manwhich I made for my niece the other day and it was sooooo good!! Anyway...What I would do is break apart your ingredients. You had a small piece of chicken, probably a tablespoon of pasta, table spoon of veggies and the sauce, if that.

    I think you just need to make an educated guess and go with it. You might be a little high or a little low, but it will balance out during the week. I would probably log 100 calories and run with it. That way you don't forget that you did have that extra bit of food during the day.:smile:

    When I make my own meals, I break it all down and log it in.
