I am wondering if I am missing something. Can you look up calories easily from this site before you want to ad them to your meal. I mean if I wanted to see how many calories are say in an egg before I eat it, can I just look it up and then decide if I want that? I have done the ad it to my meal and the delete it if I don't want it, but I thought maybe I was missing something and it is here someplace.

you can add it to see then remove it if you decide not too...
or calorie king has alot of that info
www.calorieking.com

When you are adding a new food. For example an egg. You would type egg in the search function and hit the search button. It will come back with many choices. You click on the one you think is correct. A box will come up on the side showing the item. Correct the serving size if necessary and then click where it says nutrional information near the title. A pop up box will tell you all the nutritional data. You can decide if it is what you are looking for or decide not to eat it depending on the situatuion.

also if you go to the food tab, right below one of the choices is DATABASE. click it, a search box appears. i type in whatever the item is and click from the list and on the right side it shows the nutritional info. i do that a lot when deciding what to eat

I hadn't seen that database button. That works really well.

Thanks,

no prob :) i decided to click it once and realized it was so much easier when i just wanted to browse for an idea

I think that is what I was looking for. Thanks a bunch.
