The thing is that it shows the minimumserving portion of a product to be 100 g when in reality the slice of the cheese weighs 21 g and i can do nothing about it at the moment, will the situation remain the same if i buy the premium version of the app?

    You can put the serving size at .21 of the 100g

    Oh, and the answer to your actual question is no. That's not a premium feature, it's just a matter of using decimals.

    Can you screencap? There should be a drop down box with those values, and a box next to it where you can type in a number...

    Or on the app, there is a "serving size" drop down, and above is the "number of servings" which you can tap and alter. Make the number of servings .21

    What's the item? Can you link it or give the name?

    Yes, you can change the serving size, you just haven't figured out how. Are you using the website or the app?

    On the app, when you go into the item, there is a line with Serving Size, and then a line below with number of servings. Adjust the number of servings to what you actually ate. On the website, change the serving size highlighted in blue below.

    You pick the most appropriate serving size for the way you weighed. They can't have a different serving size for every different amount of something possible. Can you imagine the size of the drop down??

    So if you ate 21g of cheese, log .21 of a 100g serving. Easy peasy.

    Try using the website version to edit it.

    But you should be able to edit the "number of servings" to 0.21 in any version of MFP.

    She doesn't want to edit the number of servings for some reason. She wants the serving size to match what she ate.

    Okay, I grabbed strawberries because it´s easie. This is the web version, but android has the same feature. Select 100 grams in the 'portion size' box, and type '0.21' (for your cheese, I had 40 grams of strawberries, so that's '0.4') in the box above that reads 'Number of servings'. All done!

    OK, ok, there's some confusion.

    To get 21g of cheese, you either put it on 100g and put in .21 servings OR you put it on 1g and put in 21 servings. 21 servings of 1g = 21g.

    Or pick the 1g option and log 21 "portions" of that.

    Ummm...if an option for 1g comes up, you're golden. Log it as 21 servings of 1g. Ergo, 21 grams.

    Bwahahaha:)) i haven't given it a thought but now it does seem weird to have such a tiny portion:))
