Food With Individual Portion Sizes

By adding individual serving sizes to the foods you use, you can track calories even faster and reach your goals more easily. Once you’ve set a serving size, all you have to do is enter the number of servings to count your calories and macronutrients.

Even though calorie tracker apps have made our lives a lot easier, they can still be quite annoying. After a long day at work and a workout, you want to lie down on the couch and finally relax in front of the TV. But you forgot something, right the last meals still have to be tracked. Was it 50 grams or 60 grams of oatmeal after workout? Does this situation seem familiar to you? We’re introducing another feature that will save you a lot of frustration by only requiring you to enter the number of servings of a food item to create your tracking entries.

Reliable Individual Serving Sizes

Many calorie trackers have stored serving data in their food search, sometimes several different ones. However, this is data that has been entered by other users. Basically, any and implausible data can be stored here. Also, this information cannot be checked manually due to its immense volume. This leads to the fact that many athletes and weight loss enthusiasts entrust their success partly to arbitrary data. And in fact, in many cases this is the reason why a diet fails. Is it therefore not obvious to give users the freedom to enter their own individual serving sizes for food? For us, the success of our users comes first, which is why we give you exactly this freedom.

As you can see in the following image, you simply need to click on the “Serving size” button below the food summary to navigate to the input screen provided for this purpose.

What does 1 serving size look like?

In the interface that follows, you simply enter the serving size of the food. You can also easily switch between the input in grams and ounces. After clicking on “Add entry”, the portion size will be saved on your device and you will automatically navigate to the next input mask for the number of portions.

What is a serving when counting calories?

If you have already used a food for meal entries, you will alternatively be shown an input mask like the one below. Here you can see your last used quantity. Either you can use it directly for further meal entries, or you can simply convert it to a serving size belonging to the food by clicking on “Serving size”. Calorie tracking has never been easier!

Is there a calorie counter app without an account?

Your portion size has been successfully assigned to the food. Now you only need to enter the number of servings to efficiently create meal entries in the future. From now on you don’t need to remember the quantities of your food to create calorie tracker entries.

Is there a totally free weight loss app?

Be on the safe side!

Diets can be planned optimally and workout routines performed consistently. But if you end up tracking your diet incorrectly, your plan is doomed to failure. Therefore, do not rely on arbitrary and unverifiable portion information in food databases. The number of foods you eat is manageable, which is why you should store individual portion sizes once to track your diet easily, quickly and safely in the future. Achieve your goals and leave nothing to chance!
