It happens to everyone: the day rushes by, you eat and only remember to log at bedtime, or the next day. The worst thing you can do is leave the day blank and give up on logging for the week.
Fill it in however you can
- Rebuild the day in order: breakfast, snack, lunch, afternoon, dinner. The sequence helps you remember.
- Use estimates: a medium portion is better than nothing.
- Check your phone photos and delivery orders: they jog your memory.
- Don't forget drinks and nibbles, the first things to slip your mind.
Make logging automatic
- Tie logging to something you already do: "I sat down to eat, I logged it".
- Log before eating when you can: snap the plate and you're done.
- Keep notifications on at the time you usually forget.
- Use shortcuts: repeating yesterday and recents cover most of it.
And if you can't remember anything?
Move on. One day without a log doesn't change the week's result. What changes it is stopping logging because of it.
In BoraThe "Repeat yesterday’s day" button logs everything you ate yesterday in one go, and recents come back with a tap.
