So here is how the diary for the day looks...and changes with each thing you add to it.

SORRY...none of the icons & pictographs show up here...basically, I can see what vitamins I've gotten enough of & which ones I need more of...I can see if I've drank enough water, had too much salt...what the ratios are between electrolytes, fats, vitamins (like Calcium:Magnesium)

So, I'm having a late lunch (was working on the roof)...and I've see that I've gotten 78% overall...100%+ of C, A, Iron, B12, B6, B2

1/2 my fiber, Calcium, other Bs & folate, zinc.

My D says low, but I spent 4 hours on the roof, so I doubt that.

My salt is double, but I don't use regular table salt, so that should be fine.

And my fats are low today.  Wish I had an avocado lying around!  Not sure how I'll pop that up today.  I'll eat some nuts later & see how that does.

Hope some other folks can use this too; it's really cool!  My exercise matches my calorie intake today - yay!

 

Oh, I also personally adjusted the Vit C to double, as I don't believe the RDA is near enough (I think I should still go higher, but we'll see how this is for now).  You can change a lot of parameters, so if you are focusing on different things, you can adjust for that
