Capture carbs, protein and fat intake

We have added wellness fields for carbs, protein and fat, all in grams:

You can add these to the wellness capture dialog, click “Fields” at the bottom:

And Options → Wellness to display them on the calendar:

You can also plot them on the /fitness page.

HealthFit is adding support to sync these from Apple Health. Hopefully other sync and food apps will also add support.

Thanks @David Yes macros integration will be available with update 12.8.4. If anyone wants to beta test the feature, feel free to reach out from within the app. As soon as Apple opens the beta, I will invite you for beta testing this feature.

@david Can we also set targets so we can track and act accordingly?

BreakAway has supported these fields for quite some time, mapping them to Custom Fields which users created. Will these be migrated / mapped over to these new native fields or they are handled natively in the backend and no changes needed to be done for these existing fields. (eg: You’ve promoted these custom fields to native fields)

I’m worried that with these native fields, this will now create churn and possibly ambiguity for moving forward.

I wasn’t aware of that. Users can choose to switch to the native fields and use the download/upload wellness CSV to copy in the historical custom field data. You should probably add the new ones but continue to support the custom field codes.

(@david, small) Feature request: :wink:
Could your provide a direct feature to copy all historical data from one (wellness) field to another — for any arbitrary pair (from, to) the user specifies?

Would surely come handy with many fields, not only this time…

I would think, download wellness csv with the one you want to copy, rename the header and reupload csv. Should be a breeze.

On this feature and other wellness tracking still would be nice if we had a ‘OK and prev’ button along with ‘OK and next’. I need a simple way to get to the previous days’ results.

FYI, since it was left out the OP and save some folks some initial error messages, the API variable name for Fat is actually fatTotal, while Carbohydrates and Protein are intuitively carbohydrates and protein respectively.

its possible to link thru myfitnesspal account?

Love it.

Do you have electrolyte/sodium or fluid fields anywhere?
