How to Start Tracking Meals with MyQi Nutrition Tracker

Starting a food diary does not need to be complicated.

MyQi Nutrition Tracker is designed to help you log meals with simple inputs, review daily nutrition, and understand your eating patterns over time.

You can start with one meal per day and build from there.

Step 1: Choose How You Want to Log

MyQi supports different ways to record meals.

You can use photo input when you want to capture a meal quickly.

You can use text input when you want to type what you ate.

You can save common meals if you repeat the same foods often.

The best method is the one you will actually use.

Step 2: Log the Meal

When you log a meal, try to include the main food items and rough portions.

For example:

Grilled chicken rice bowl

Two eggs and toast

Greek yogurt with blueberries

Coffee with milk

Salmon, rice, and broccoli

The more clearly you describe the meal, the better the result can be.

Step 3: Review the Nutrition Summary

After logging, review your daily nutrition view.

Look at calories, protein, carbs, fat, and the general meal pattern. You do not need to react to every number immediately.

Use the summary to learn.

Step 4: Build a Simple Routine

Try logging meals at the same time each day.

For example:

After breakfast

After lunch

After dinner

Before bed as a quick review

A routine helps tracking become easier.

Step 5: Focus on Patterns

One meal is not the full story. MyQi is most useful when you use it to see patterns over time.

You may notice that your protein is low, snacks are higher than expected, or weekend meals look different from weekdays.

These patterns can help you make better choices.

FAQ
