Snack/Other Carb Inclusion
First, I am a new (< month) user of GB Pro and am very impressed. I use Fat Secret in conjunction with GB as I like to use the bar code scanner to accumulate meal components. [Though it is pretty easy to manually transfer each day the carb data by meal to GB, it would be wonderful if there were an interface or if GB had a similar bar code scanner]. I'm a senior citizen+ and have had Type II for years but didn't pay all that much attention to my diet. With some recent development with my sight, I've gotten serious and started using a paper logs etc. - a PITA as far as I am concerned. Using GB on my iPhone actually, to me, makes tracking all the data quite fun (and much more enlightening). Anyway, to my question.
Though elderly, I wanted to try this Report Generator Tool and found that it doesn't work, or I couldn't make it work , on Open Office. So this morning I bought and installed MS Office and ran the report. [Very good instructions and generating the report was a snap]. However, all my carbs do not show up, specifically my mid day and evening snack so my daily carbs are understated. I want to use the report for my doctor's visits but I think that having to explain that snack carbs are excluded or providing some other handwritten 'snack log' will undermine the confidence in the GB Report. Reading through the thread entries, I see that Twisty was planning to address the snack/other/note issue. I realize that Twisty has other things that occupy his time and that this report is a donation of his time and talents (and both are, I sure, considerable) but I'm wondering if any new release is release is planned/timing or if anyone has some work around to include the snack carbs? Thanks |
