I am new to Myfitnesspal, but I find I am constantly going between where I am eating or preparing to my computer to enter. So, I had this brilliant idea. Take a picture of what I am eating with my phone and enter it that day when you have time. Makes it easier when you are eating out as well. Now I don't stress out trying to remember.

    If you have a smart phone, download the My Fitness Pal app - you can enter everything there rather than having to go to your computer.

    I find I actually prefer the app to the website. I have it on my iPad and phone.

    I've only been on the actual website twice. Once to fix my diary settings and once cause I was looking for something. I use the app exclusively.

    pictures don't really tell a good story. you really need to be weighing your food very carefully. and as others have said, they put them in the App.

    When I don't feel like scanning/searching for a food, weighing it, then logging it (especially for meals with a lot of ingredients or layers), I just jot the weight down on a notepad then log it later. Sometimes I just want to eat and am impatient. Most phones have a notepad app already installed if you don't want to use pen and paper.
