Re-logging past meals

Last updated August 3, 2026


If you eat the same breakfast three mornings a week, there is no reason to describe it from scratch each time — and good reason not to, because every fresh description is a fresh estimate that lands slightly differently.

How to use it#

Type / in the input. A list of dishes you have logged before appears. Keep typing to filter, then pick one.

The pick appears in the input as a reference chip — it is not text you typed, it is a link to stored data.

You can mix freely:

  • Just a past dish: /grilled chicken breast
  • Several at once: /grilled chicken breast /steamed rice
  • Past and new together: /grilled chicken breast + an iced latte

The text you type is analysed as normal; the picked references are not.

Why the numbers match last time exactly#

A re-logged dish does not go through estimation again. Its nutrition is carried over from the entry you already confirmed.

The real benefit

Beyond being faster, this keeps your history consistent. If the same lunch came out at 475 kcal one day and 530 the next purely because you phrased it differently, your weekly chart would be full of noise that is not real.

You can still adjust the amount after picking, if today's portion was smaller.

Re-logging a whole meal#

As well as individual dishes, you can re-log an entire saved meal — useful for a fixed breakfast or for food you batch-prepare.

Meals from friends#

If someone in your Circle shares a meal, you can log it to your own diary — the whole thing, or half of it if you split it between you.
