I wasn't sure how to add a recipe on here. I didn't realize when you put in all the ingredients it kinda breaks it down for you. So here I am making this awesome chili tonight using some massive brain power to figure calories because this was a huge expirement for me. I ended up putting too many noodles. So I wanted to half the noodles which then threw off the number of cups in the whole pot of chili. OKAY now here is me, (Mrs 5th grade math level on my college entry tests) wanting to know how many cooked noodles there are per cup verses uncooked just to delete the number of correct cups from the recipe so the one I submitted was not as noodley as ours. I counted each and every dry and cooked noodle to get the difference. LOL. Yeah, I am a dork, but all in all, and almost 3 hours after dinner, my recipe was completed and it was delicious! It's now 11:14pm and I am off to bed feeling pretty darn proud of myself. :-)

its actually pretty cool that you can put in recipes in here and it can calculate for you how much calories and such your recipe has. It makes it all very interesting, I think and it makes you more self conscious of what you eat. So now I am into measuring what I eat because having a bowl of cereal is one thing but having a serving of cereal is another, it makes all the difference...... Keep up the good work.
