Anyway to add a recipe to another recipe?
I was curious if anyone had any tips on how to combine recipes accurately. I am making sauce tonight, which I have already built for what is in it. However, I'm not going to be using all the sauce when I combine it with pasta and cheese for the lasagna I'm making. Is there anyway to enter the amount of sauce I use vs…

I got a question for all you folks. How do you cope with someone that puts you down and makes you feel horrible for bettering yourself? My sister seems to hate the fact that I'm losing weight.

Recommendations on insoles
So I bought myself a new pair of shoes a few weeks ago. They are Asics GT1000. As I have been using them, I have been having problems with getting blisters on the bottom of my feet. I switched out insoles on them, figuring that was likely the cause, but I'm still getting them on occasion. I also wound up messing up my shin…

Cardio questions
I got a couple questions to ask about heart health and exercise. For the last couple months, I've been exercising everyday for the most part, doing 30 minutes of cardio a day, and then some weights after for a bit then relaxing the rest of the day.

Confused about packaging
So I'm making some Rice side from Knorr and it has both unprepared and prepared as far as nutritional values, and has different serving sizes. If it is 1/2 cup unprepared, does that mean 1 cup is with it prepared? If so, why is it labeled with both? Not sure who would eat this right out of the packet. It is kind of…

The last few days though, my schedule has kind of rotated a bit, and I'm doing my workouts at night and staying up to 3-4 in the morning. I usually eat after my workouts, but I have been told that eating late at night is bad for…

Ounces vs fluid ounces and tracking in the app
So I am curious if the app is mislabeling things or if it is correct. Most foods that I have logged, wind up being in fluid ounces instead of just regular ounces. This is on items I've searched for or scanned in. Like my eggs this morning were fluid ounces. I weighed them, and just put that number in but I'm wondering if…

Am I doing this right?
So I've been working with this whole diet thing for a few weeks now, and I'm very happy to say that I have lost already 12 pounds in the last month since I got a fitbit and Gym membership.

Is there a way to convert a serving size to weight like ounces?
So I just started a couple weeks ago with logging and keeping track of my intake. So far, I'm losing weight which is a great thing. I've been using the app more and have started putting some of the recipes we always eat into the app. I'm not 100% sure how to determine serving size, but I have been winging that. So far most…
