Known Issues
If you don't get your food reports back within 20 min of submitting them, try two things:
- Switch your phone’s WiFi off and on. Sometimes it's a connection issue.
- Message “people in back” in Mighty Networks if 1 doesn't work. Here's how.

How to Log Food & Water
https://www.loom.com/share/360e7d64c86142ed91e25a765deada1f
- Click on the "+ Add Food" button in the center of the screen or the "+" button on the bottom.
- You can log food in the following format:
-
Type and send food in the form of: food name (quantity)
- Examples
- rice (1 cup)
- trader joe's hummus (1 serving)
- water (1 cup)
- If you don't provide a
quantity, the app will automatically assume (1).
-
Take a picture of the nutrition label and just send the name of the food without specifying the quantity (we'll assume 1 serving).
-
NOTE: When sending nutrition label please show the full label, which includes: calories, fats, carbs, protein, fiber, and sugar.
This will help speed things up for our people-in-back because otherwise, they have to manually look this information up on the internet.
-
Take a photo of your dish with your hand next to it without specifying the quantity. We'll use what's in the photo to gauge portion size.
- If you press enter on your keyboard or click the "Add Another Food" button, you can add more foods.
