I want to track my morning coffee creamer over multiple days all at once so I don't have to track it every day. I've tried to figure out how to do this but I'm unable to do it. Is this possible, or is it not a feature of MFP?

    You can create a recipie in my fitness pal. Just add what you usually have like your coffee or tea and creamer and save it. Then all you do each day is add it to your diary.

    You can't enter the same foods simultaneously over several days. You can copy from day to day, though (individual foods or whole meals). Or save meals and add them easily that way over several days.

    A new feature I noticed very recently (that may be premium, but I am not sure) on the iOS app is that when I enter a food, it gives me the option to enter it for several days. I just noticed this last week; I don't use it.

    I do have a morning coffee routine every day. You can go to settings and activate "quick copy." This lets me copy my morning meal (as well as a daily correction) with one swipe each day any time my diary is open. It's maybe two clicks on the website, so it works there too.

    They really only give you the option to copy a meal to yesterday, today, tomorrow or the day after. I eat all my meals the same Monday through Friday (except dinner) so I just make a meal. Three dots, create meal and I call it lunch and then add that meal to each day of the week.

    Yup, I just noticed it too. It's definitely premium and the 'promo' for it mentions 'up to a week ahead of time'.
