How To Track Inches Lost

Tracking your inches lost is easy on Baritastic. Please watch the video below for a quick tutorial.

How to Log Food On Baritastic

Why should you be tracking your nutrition? Studies show if you track what you eat, you can lose up to twice as much weight and you’ll be able to maintain your weight loss better when compared to people who do not track. So, start tracking.

This video shows a quick overview of how to use the nutrition tracker.

Here are some key tips from the video:

  1. Voice to text is very easy and quick with SmartSearch (the microphone icon).
  2. For packaged foods, scan the barcode.
  3. If there is no barcode or the scanner doesn’t read the barcode, use the Search function to find and log your food.
    1. Change the number of servings to match how much you ate.
  4. If you still can’t find your food or the nutrition info is wrong,  you can create  your own food or use the Quick Add feature if it’s a food that you don’t eat often.
