I eat 6 meals or more a day and would like a seperate catagory for each one. Is there anyway to do this?

    Settings (top of page) >> Diary Settings. You can log 6 "meals" or name them anything you want.

    Edit: I have mine set to times of day. Ex: 7AM-10AM, 10AM-1PM, 1PM-4PM, etc.
  • You can change your setting to whatever you want. Go to Food, then Settings tab... there are two more slots you just have to give them a name and you are good

    go to settings - diary settings - scroll down and you can change the meals :)

    I use the time ranges too! It's so much easier.

    Absolutely!! Go to the foods tab then on the options bar there should be settings and there you can add and change names of categories as you'd like! I think there's only 6 spots but that's perfect for your 6 meals!! I have my set up:

    Breakfast, Lunch, Dinner, Snacks, Drinks and vitamins!

    Is it really a good idea to associate shame with food?
