Calorie Tracking App Needed
Posted on 6/4/20 at 9:03 am
Posted on 6/4/20 at 9:03 am
I have a food scale and I want to use it to track the actual amount of food that I am eating instead of an app assuming the number of calories that I am eating. For instance 1/4 of an avocado can have a variety of weights but Los eIt or My Fitness Pal have a predetermined calorie count for that quantity. Any suggestions??

You can change the measurement on MFP to grams for just about everything. You also aren't going to make or break your diet by getting that granular unless you are trying to win Mr Olympia or some shite.

This.
95% of the entries have the option for 1g or 1oz so you can fine tune most entries. If that particular entry doesn't, look for another one of the same thing.

Carb Manager is great. Each item can be entered as small, medium, large, by cups, by grams, etc.

I get what youre saying, but there are some people that need to track down to the gram to make sure they arent overeating. Im shite at eyeing portions and use MFP to keep honest about how much I'm consuming. weighing my food down to the oz/gram has been the only way Ive ever been able to lose weight in my life.
Down to 213 from 230 in the past month and a half.

I measure what I eat too, but he was concerned about the difference in grams between a quarter avacodo between two avacados. You aren't going to gain weight because you eat a quarter avacado that weights 110g or 120g
