Hi guys,
I'm new to My Fitness Pal and noticed that the only unit you can record water intake is in 'cups' does anyone know how many ml's that is? I've drank 3 pints of water today and not sure how to record it. Thanks.

    A cup is 250ml unless you're talking about a US cup, which is approximately 238ml. That level of precision hardly matters here though.

    There's 2 cups in one pint. One pint is 473mL. For 3 pints, that's 1419.5mL. You should be able to find conversion cheat sheets online too.

    236.588 ml in one cuP.
    In the US, a "cup" is a unit of measure equalling 8 oz.
    A tip in case you need conversions, you can use Google to find out quickly. I Googled "One cup in mL" to get the above.

    Don't give her such a hard time. It's good to talk and ask questions. Would make mfp boring if we just looked it all up online. Think of it like mystery hour.

    I've got a few conversion charts bookmarked. being on American forums, I have no choice.

    Miles, ounces ,pounds, pints mean nothing to me :open_mouth:

    And then of course us poor Brits get confused because over here there are 20 fl oz/pint (568ml). Argh!
