Tips for weighing and logging
Use these values for cooked weight and account for extra pan oil separately.
To calculate manually, multiply your portion weight in grams by 256 and divide by 100. For example, 100 g provides approximately 256 kcal.
When logging a photo, check the food, cooking method and estimated portion before saving. A photograph cannot reliably show hidden oil or exact weight.
