This may need to be split into multiple steps, I think MyFitnessPal has a public and strong API to allow us to pull nutrition information to allow the user to physically search and input food into their food log or by using a barcode scanning with the phone camera (not sure how to implement this) but we can try it

What is the benefit that we are trying to achieve?

The user wants to be able to

  1. Record what food they ate
  2. How much of the food they ate
  3. View a comprehensive summary of their food intake for better understanding of progress

Solution Day based

Backend

  1. Database for food item, and subsequent calories, date and time-> similar to diary
  2. Picture? Maybe

Frontend

  1. Screen 1: boxes for name, description, calories, choose date and time, choose between [snack, breakfast, lunch, dinner]
  2. Screen 2: list of all food items of the day -and display appropriate information.
