My Daily Plate Tracker

I have a special recipe for SF Instant Pudding to make it higher in Protein.  How do I add it to Daily Plate Tracker. I want to add the recipe so it breaks out the carbs and fat....etc.   Anyone use it and can guide me through it. Thanks.

The only website I know of that lets you input several items together to create a single nutrition read out is Nutridairy. http://www.nutridiary.com/ You can sign up for a free account to keep track of your daily intake ... or do what I do and just use their "meals" feature to figure out recipes, then track it in my preferred tracking system (FitDay).  Click on  "MEALS" --- this feature is designed to create a standard meal that you have often, so you can just add it with a single click.  But it also works to add ingredients for a full recipe.  You can also add the information for the WHOLE recipe, then tell it how much that recipe makes (such as 6 cups or some large amoung).  Once you save the meal it'll give you all the nutrient info.  I then take that info and add it as a Custom Food in FitDay.  Then I can pick the serving size I ate and it'll do the calculation for me. I just wish FitDay would add that feature to their program.  Would make life easier.  LOL! Pam

Pam, If you have the PC version of FitDay, you can add the recipe as a custom food.  Then just figure out how much you ate and put it in (i.e. If you get 16 servings out of something, the serving size would be .0625). It's a little bit of a pain, but can be done. Jenn

Jenn: Ooo... thanks for the heads up on the PC version.  I've been avoiding buying it simply because I access FitDay from multiple computers and its just easier.  But I might need to check out the full version just for that feature. Just checked out your pictures Jenn... you're looking great! Pam

Thanks, Pam! I bought the PC version because I could put it on multiple computers and then use a back up to keep them all on the same page.  It's really worth the $20. Jenn
