Feature guide
How can you log meals without counting every calorie?
Rough meal logging means recording enough information to understand the day without identifying every ingredient or counting every gram.
Short answer
In MellowBite, a rough meal entry is a quick meal record based on a broad meal weight such as light, normal, or heavy. It helps update the daily state without requiring exact food accounting.
Key takeaways
- Use rough logging when exact food search would slow you down.
- A rough entry is enough to keep the Today state useful on normal days.
- Photo and text estimates are still available when more detail is helpful.
When should you use rough meal logging?
Use rough meal logging when the meal is ordinary, you do not know exact portions, or you would otherwise skip logging entirely.
- A quick lunch where exact ingredients do not matter.
- A restaurant meal where portion size is only approximate.
- A busy day when keeping the habit matters more than precision.
What should a rough meal entry include?
A rough meal entry should capture the meal timing and broad meal weight. MellowBite then updates the daily state so the user can see where the day is leaning.
Why is rough logging useful?
Rough logging is useful because missed records make the day unclear. A simple approximate entry is often more helpful than no entry at all.
