Getting Started with Your Diet Diary

Open your diet diary app. Go to the diary section. Tap the plus icon to add an entry.

Step 1: Logging Existing Exercises

1. Access the Exercise Database:
   • In the diary, tap the plus icon near the exercise section.
   • A search box appears. Type the name of your exercise (for example, “walking”).

2. Select Exercise and Log Duration:
   • From the list, tap the activity you did.
   • Type the time you spent (in seconds, minutes, or hours).
   • You can add a note if you want.

3. Energy Burn Calculation:
   • The app shows how much energy you burned.
   • It uses your age, gender, and weight to calculate this.
   • Find these details in the “About” section of settings.

Step 2: Adding Custom Exercises

If you do an exercise that is not in the database, you can add it yourself:

1. Creating Custom Exercises:
   • Tap the resources tab.
   • Tap the plus button.
   • Choose “Custom Exercise.”
   • Type the name, time, and the energy burn (in kilojoules or calories).
   • Tap “Save.”

2. Using Custom Exercises in Your Diary:
   • After you create the exercise, go back to the diary.
   • Tap the plus icon again.
   • Choose “My Exercises.” Look for your custom entry and adjust it if needed.

Step 3: Editing or Deleting Exercises

Sometimes your exercise routine changes. Here is how to update your entries:

1. Editing an Exercise:
   • Go to the resources tab and select “My Exercises.”
   • Tap the exercise you want to change.
   • Make your changes and save.
   • Note that your edits change all past and future entries for that exercise.

2. Deleting an Exercise:
   • In “My Exercises,” tap the ellipses next to the exercise name.
   • Choose to delete the exercise.
   • This deletion is permanent, but old entries stay in your diary.

3. Duplicating Exercises:
   • To copy an entry, go to “My Exercises.”
   • Select the duplicate option.
   • A new entry appears with “copy” in the name. Adjust it as needed.
