I'm on soft foods and I don't know if it is because I'm bad at math I am having difficult times putting my food portion in my fitness pal. I need some tips for that to make it easier for me . sometimes I don't want to eat because it is too much trouble.

What kinds of things are you eating? If you can give some examples, I am sure people can provide more specific help.

Things that I find helpful: most foods on MyFitnessPal have adjustable serving sizes/types, which will include "100 grams." If I weigh my food (for example, chicken breast) and know that I am eating 40 grams of chicken breast, I use the "100 grams" serving portion and say that I ate .40 of a serving. If I ate 56 grams, it's .56 of the 100 grams serving portion.

If I am using percentages (for example, if 100 grams is not available as a serving size), a lot of the time I use this calculator to help me figure out portion sizes:

The second calculator is really helpful. If I have a tuna packet that has 2.6 ounces, I might weigh out 2 ounces because I don't want to eat the whole thing. The second calculator will tell me that 2 is 76.9% of 2.6, and then I can enter my serving portion of MyFitnessPal as .769 of a tuna packet.

My food scale and the calculator are the two things I use the most to help me calculate serving sizes. Good luck!

I been finding things online to convert it is getting easier . I been eating turkey chili pinto Beans yogurt Protein shakes. I been pre measuring my meals and putting them in fridge so it's is easier to put in my fitness pal

It helps to weight or measure my food. Do you have a food scale and measuring cups and spoons?
