Re: What integration would you like to see next?
Missing TrainingPeaks integration is a pretty big downside to Cronometer. Multisport athletes use variety of devicea and sync all of them to TrainingPeaks (ErgData, Wattbike, Garmin, iFit, etc). Disappointed not to even see it as an option in the poll :/

Re: Adjusting/editing database foods to customize
If I understood you correctly, I think we can already do what you're after. This is how I do it:
- Add already existing food from database into diary.
- Right click and select "View/Edit Selected Food".
- Click "Edit a Copy" on top right gear icon.
- Save the edited copy to your own food.
- Delete the entry of other food from the diary.
Alternatively, you could save a recipe with the existing food as an ingredient so that your food will always stay up to date.
I have been able to modify my previously saved custom food so I'm not sure why you can't seem to do it.

Re: Recurring Entries
I use the recipe trick all the time. My recipe is called "Daily Supplements" , works like a charm and saves a lot of entry time.

Re: Who else is peeved by the weight change indicator?
I like using apps, it helps me. I trust you haven't looked at Happy Scale. It's the moving average that is interesting, and whilst I could easily create a spreadsheet to replicate the app I would then need to input weight each day too. The weight recorded from my scales is uploaded to Apple Health and passed to Garmin and Cronometer, so why not Happy Scale. In any case I'll use as many tools to help me on my quest and I believe Happy Scale has helped me. I have about 5kgs max further to lose and I switched from MyFitness Pal to Cronometer because I feel it is better suited for maintenance
Here's my results since 11th Nov 19. I have religiously monitored and recorded my calorie intake since 11.11.19. My starting point made it progression easy once I was committed.

Abbott's Freestyle Libre continuous glucose monitor. I would love to see that overlaid with fasting and dietary information.

Hi There
My name is Tracy and I have just recently started using this app regularly. I have lost 2.4 lbs in the last 2 weeks. I have about 5 lbs more that I really want to lose to get to my goal, so I am taking my time getting there. I am 47 years old and I have worked out for many years doing all kinds of exercise, but recently started Barre Blend which I really like!
Hope you are all doing well. I don't see many people introducing themselves on here, but I wanted to say Hi.
Have a great Wednesday!

Option to display net carbs when adding ingredients
It would be great if the option to display net carbs for each ingredient in the description part of a recipe. I'm keto and would like to be able to tweak the quantity if the net carb count is too high.
Re: Mercola continues to be a clown and a hypocrit
Why on Earth are you posting all of this on the Success page? Doesn't sound like a success but a gripe with Mercola which really is between you and Mercola.

Re: Vegan Diet - b12
I am a vegan dietitian and have been eating vegan since I was a teenager. While a poorly planned vegan diet can result in negative health outcomes, so too can a poorly planned omnivore diet!
Research shows that a vegan diet is healthy and safe for all individuals of the life cycle, including infants, pregnant women, and athletes. I also see this in practice daily as I work with all these individuals and watch them grow normally and thrive on their plant-based diet. And since I also work in research, I have seen the studies that support this evidence statement.
If you want to be vegan, you don't need to justify your decision to anyone.
Regarding deficiencies, I would be very skeptical to see something develop in just 3 weeks! Most nutrient deficiencies take time to develop and with a B12 supplement, there would be no way this was the issue (provided your body absorbs B12 properly).
My final advice to you is to eat whatever diet appeals to you, provided it is safe and well-balanced. Since mainstream nutrition advice doesn't centre around plant-based diets, it's worthwhile for you and your parents to make an appointment with a Registered Dietitian in your area who can provide you advice and guidance around plant-based eating ( I can help you find one if needed).
At the end of the day, we have essential requirements for nutrients, not foods.
