For example, I added Splenda as a custom food and rather than save my setting of 1 gram (which is the size of one packet), it saved it as 1 ounce, making it 25.5 grams of carb. Last week I entered a custom 5.5 ounce can of V8 but it is saved as a one-ounce serving, so I have to adjust it every time.

I do realize that my default settings are for ounces, but does that mean I can't override those settings when I save custom foods and favorites? It would be so much easier if saving something saved the exact settings I used when I clicked the save button.

Does that make sense?



Sounds like you might want to use the custom size form.

On the custom food page:

http://forum.lowcarber.org/myplan.php?&do=custom

There's a link that says "custom size". Click it to enter your custom size, such as 1 packet, 5 grams, etc.

Wa'il
