Thanks! I had wanted to edit some entries and I didn't know how to do that.
Is there a way to add multiple additional entries to the drop down menu for servings? I don't see how to do that but I would think there would be a way to add a serving choice for grams to something that already has servings in cups.0 -
http://foodfastfit.com/ this MFP add-on has a feature that allows you to block all user added entries, and lists number of confirmations for each item without your needing to click on the listing.0

Interesting.. have to check it out. Thanks0 -
I wish there was someone who worked for MFP who would go in and check nutritional values/calorie counts/duplicate entries. It would be very helpful.0

How do you log a lick or taste?
Say I had a single bite of macaroni and cheese. How would that be logged?
You don't. It is part of living. If your single bite of mac & cheese is bothering you or impacting your weight loss then it was more than a bite or lick or taste. If it happens enough times in a day to impact you then you need better meal planning and a discussion with yourself about how you approach food.
As a cook (not professional ) at home I used to "bite, lick, taste" lots of things and it does impact weight loss when you do it a lot.
I think that phrase is to make people aware that if they are "nibblers" and say oh it's only a bite...those bites add up.
So give them up or try to log them...it's easier to give it up. I mean I can take a pretty big bite out of my husband flamer thrower if I wanted...
I personally have logged a bit off of a "sweet" as I suspected the entire thing had about 300 calories...last week I believe...made a note of it in my diary to explain the quick adds (it wasn't good enough to waste 300 calories on)
I follow the rule "eat everything sitting down" including tasting food etc. I was alarmed at how often my hand went up to my mouth in those first few days and I had to stop it. The weight started falling off too.
