Hello, diets for type 2 diabetics wanted
Hello, I am back to tracking and decided I'd try to be social as opposed to living in my own little corner alone. I'm 53 and a type 2 diabetic. I find it consistently irritating the differing kinds of information about nutrition for diabetics. I have also recently stopped using a CGM to track blood sugar and have moved…

Second time around and desperate.
Hello, this is my second time trying logging all my food in hopes that it will help me get healthier and lose weight.

I’m desperate for this to work as…

How do I track fiber intake?
Hello all. New...again;) I realize early nutrition labels didn't reflect fiber, but that changed awhile ago.

If the nutrition label information wasn't ever updated to include…

I am getting a month's worth of groceries all at once.
I know that I will have to take a number of days to make things, but first is breakfast burritos, High Protein Breakfast Burritos, Sheet Pan Burritos, and Breakfast Muffins. Each of the Breakfast items makes 10 servings each. I am focusing on that for now. I pick up my groceries today between 1 and 2 pm from Wally World.…

Add a negative
Let us remove items, it could simply be searching for the item and adding it as a negative. Let’s say I go to a restaurant and the meal I got already exists in the large database of options. Woo! BUT I got it with no mayo, or I didn’t eat about half a cup of rice.. so if I could just simply search mayo and “subtract” 2…

The GLP-1 juggernaut is slowing. Eli Lily missed a sales target.
Eli Lilly's rare sales miss for weight-loss drug sends shares tumbling https://www.reuters.com/business/healthcare-pharmaceuticals/eli-lilly-misses-third-quarter-profit-amid-soaring-demand-weight-loss-drug-2024-10-30/ Looks like there’s a limit to demand for GLP-1 meds.
