in Getting Started
I'm new and trying to work out how I can add a number of foods that I regularly eat so that I don't have to scan each time.
Just trying to be proactive and have most foods ready to go making it easier for me to give this a good go from day 1.
Thanks

    Once you start entering your foods, MFP will store them for you. You'll need to enter them the first time and then it will be in your "recent" list. Items you eat often will be in the "frequently" list.

    Does that mean that you can't proactively add foods prior to the first time you use them when using this app?

    Not that I've seen, no, but the search feature is pretty easy to work with and you only have to enter your food items once, each.

    Ok. Thanks.
    It seems a little silly that the app does not allow you to be prepared which would assist in a successful weight loss journey

    If you go to your meals and click the quick tools you can copy meals to a different day.

    You can log it for the future, if that helps. If you know that tomorrow you're going to have a bag of chips and an apple for lunch, you can log that now, and then adjust as needed.
