Ways to improve the customs food on the diet tracker

If the gurus at AH could - it would be great to have the following options:
1) edit custom foods
2) add service sizes to custom foods
3) delete custom foods
4) group custom foods under a heading
5) have a recipe analyzer where you could put in a recipe & a serving size & have it break it down for you into calories per serving.

just a few suggestions. I find myself guessing a lot on some things & getting mad when the site freezes & then adds one of my foods 4 or 5 times....

Thanks for sharing your ideas:) I will pass this information to the AH Staff.

I agree! The ability to put in ingredients for a recipe and have it break it down for nutritional values would be excellent. I use a site on line that does that but hate to have to go back and forth. Also why does the site freeze so bad? Often I can't sign in or when I do get in I can't do anything once I am in!

I agree, too! I'd like to see an "advanced search" where you can filter. Sometimes you get too many hits across food categories if you are looking under a manufacturer. I'd also like to see more products. I create a lot of "custom" foods for packaged items that don't seem that unusual.

I love these ideas, especially breaking down the recipes. I also wish they would add the Jacobs Ladder to the fitness section for tracking exercise.

REALLY would love the ability to add activities to my personal list, like you can for foods. Where is Zumba?!

I'm new to this. Is there a way to save my list of favorites and then drag them into the day that I want them? It looks like that's possible, but I can't get them to save and I don't want to find the same ones day after day.
