Custom Fields from Weight Tracker to Meal Tracker? #141

Closed sbservices closed 2 years ago

sbservices commented 2 years ago

I was looking at Custom Fields today and how we might use them. The examples include Waist Measurement, Leg Measurement, Glasses of Water drank today and Did I keep to my diet? However, most people would log their weight once per week and these details would normally be stored daily against their food tracker rather than their weekly weight entry.

Just wondering if the custom fields section could be added to the Meal Tracker as well?

I was going to add a custom field for daily entry to include, (1) How much water (2) My Mood Today on scale of 1 to 10, etc. These are daily tracked items that you would take into consideration what you ate that day. Maybe the mood was low and your calorie intake was very overbudget for that day. Helps people to recognise emotional eating patterns. And if they had a good weight loss on a particular week, they can check their food tracker to see whether that was because they had plenty of fluids most days that week and was their mood good as well as what they ate.

Thanks

Hello :)

It could be added, but it's a huge bit of work and not something that's on my immediate road map I'm afraid
