00:00:03.216 --> 00:00:08.204
Breta, MS, RDN - HSN Team: We're gonna give everybody a couple more minutes to come up.
2
00:00:09.036 --> 00:00:33.876
Breta, MS, RDN - HSN Team: and you'll notice I'm on here. Twice I have my phone connected cause. I wanna be able to share my screen so I can run through the app with you guys as well in case you prefer to use chronometer on your phone. So we're gonna do a desktop version, and we'll also do the mobile version as well. Just to give you guys a little tutorial because it does come up different on your phone but sometimes using your phone is a little bit easier or more convenient for your
3
00:00:33.876 --> 00:01:00.526
Breta, MS, RDN - HSN Team: everyday life. But in the chat, while we're waiting just a few more minutes for anyone else who's gonna join to jump back in. If you guys wanna let me know if you've used chronometer, actually. Yeah, we'll just do it in the chat if you wanna let me know if you've used chronometer before, that would be awesome. And if you have, if there's any like pressing questions that you're hoping we can answer today, feel free to drop that in the chat.
4
00:01:21.366 --> 00:01:24.306
Breta, MS, RDN - HSN Team: Okay and
5
00:01:24.536 --> 00:01:25.916
Breta, MS, RDN - HSN Team: awesome.
6
00:01:26.366 --> 00:01:38.815
Breta, MS, RDN - HSN Team: A few people have a few people haven't. I'm gonna drop the link for chronometer in the chat as well. So if you haven't used it before. And you wanna pull it up. That would be awesome.
7
00:01:40.166 --> 00:01:58.500
Breta, MS, RDN - HSN Team: And yeah, I'm gonna give you guys some tips and tricks to just not get a ton of chronometer. Fatigue, if you don't have to. It's 11 or 11 o'clock, my time. I'm on central time, so it's noon Eastern, so we'll go ahead and jump in. I know we have some chronometer super users here as well.
8
00:01:59.036 --> 00:02:00.386
Breta, MS, RDN - HSN Team: I
9
00:02:00.506 --> 00:02:23.506
Breta, MS, RDN - HSN Team: personally find tracking very, very tedious. Tracking your intake. I feel like it's a lot of work. However. I if you guys don't know. And one of the dieticians, or was one of the dieticians at optimal bone health. I've transitioned out of my clinical role, and I do Hsn and I do marketing and development and tech support and all the things
10
00:02:23.903 --> 00:02:31.445
Breta, MS, RDN - HSN Team: but up until October of 2,023 I was seeing patients at optimal bone health, and
11
00:02:31.446 --> 00:02:56.206
Breta, MS, RDN - HSN Team: for a while, probably a good year I was the only physician optimal bone health. So tracking has made a huge difference, I think, in how we're able to serve our clients. And so, even if you are not like a one on one patient of optimal bone health, I think there's definitely some ways that you can use it to help better understand what you're eating. And if it's actually meeting your needs. So
12
00:02:56.416 --> 00:03:23.865
Breta, MS, RDN - HSN Team: when if you're an optimal bone, health client, essentially, we give you access to an account on our platform, which means your dietician can actually log in and check out all your trends and see all the things that you're doing so that way. You know, you don't have to take screenshots or send documents and all of that stuff they can just log in and see it. So I wanna give you guys, if you're not a full service patient of ours, I wanna give you guys all the tips and tricks to be able to use it to the best of your ability. So
13
00:03:26.766 --> 00:03:50.925
Breta, MS, RDN - HSN Team: I'm just looking at. Okay. So there's a few good questions in here on like grams, and how we're entering things for tracking and yes, today's entire meeting is gonna be about chronometer. So we're gonna go over the desktop and we're gonna go over the digital app. And then we're gonna go over some ways to really make it easier for you to utilize it. So things to streamline. And then
14
00:03:50.926 --> 00:03:58.926
Breta, MS, RDN - HSN Team: a few kind of like tricks of the trade. So you don't have to track all the time if you don't want to. But it's totally up to you. And what helps you meet your goals? So
15
00:03:58.926 --> 00:04:06.755
Breta, MS, RDN - HSN Team: so keep the questions coming. I'll be able to see them. But I'm gonna go ahead and share my screen with you guys.
16
00:04:07.679 --> 00:04:08.926
Breta, MS, RDN - HSN Team: Let's see.
17
00:04:09.946 --> 00:04:34.835
Breta, MS, RDN - HSN Team: Okay, so you guys should all be able to see chronometer here. I am. Gonna start with some of the basics. So if you're a chronometer user already, you will probably know what we're talking about here. And that's totally fine. We'll kind of breeze through this part and then get into the the meet of what we wanna talk about. But you can see so chronometer. This is a patient facing account. So, and this one is connected
18
00:04:34.836 --> 00:04:48.526
Breta, MS, RDN - HSN Team: to our oh account. So if you have like a free version that's not connected to our oh account, then you might things might show up like a tiny bit differently, but for the most part it should present the same.
19
00:04:48.666 --> 00:04:58.495
Breta, MS, RDN - HSN Team: So if you're on the desktop, we wanna click on diary. So your diary is like your food diary. So it's all the things that we're gonna be putting in here. Food wise.
20
00:04:59.087 --> 00:05:03.736
Breta, MS, RDN - HSN Team: This is super simple to enter food into
21
00:05:03.776 --> 00:05:11.146
Breta, MS, RDN - HSN Team: and using it's even easier to do it on your phone, because you can scan in labels and stuff. And we'll talk about that
22
00:05:11.634 --> 00:05:35.185
Breta, MS, RDN - HSN Team: but if you click on, add food you'll be able to see all right here. So these are things that I have commonly like clicked on and added to chrono meter, so does anybody in the chat wanna throw out I'll have you. I'm gonna add a few things, but I'll actually, if somebody just wants to jump on and share what they ate for breakfast this morning. That would be awesome can unmute and let me know.
23
00:05:37.386 --> 00:05:39.215
Breta, MS, RDN - HSN Team: Go ahead, Lorna, you're muted, though.
24
00:05:42.026 --> 00:05:42.836
Breta, MS, RDN - HSN Team: There you go.
25
00:05:43.006 --> 00:05:44.031
Lorna Nichols: Okay.
26
00:05:46.076 --> 00:05:49.105
Lorna Nichols: I have pretty much the same thing every day.
27
00:05:50.856 --> 00:05:53.286
Lorna Nichols: one large egg.
28
00:05:54.326 --> 00:06:02.745
Lorna Nichols: soft boiled, but the yoke a little bit hard. I was using a piece of sourdough bread, but I've just recently
29
00:06:03.386 --> 00:06:07.646
Lorna Nichols: stop the bread, and I'm gonna try a rice cake
30
00:06:07.756 --> 00:06:18.545
Lorna Nichols: instead of a piece of bread, and I do is I scoop the yolk out. It's it's it's sort of tween, soft and hard, and I spread it like butter on the rice.
31
00:06:18.546 --> 00:06:29.326
Breta, MS, RDN - HSN Team: Oh, yeah, okay, awesome. Well, here's the thing to make this easier for yourself, for tracking, cause that's like, that's awesome. When we think about what we're doing. Tracking wise.
32
00:06:29.676 --> 00:06:55.345
Breta, MS, RDN - HSN Team: The one of the biggest barriers for people is finding the exact this thing that they're looking for, and so we don't want that to get in the way like of. We don't want perfect to get in the way of like putting something down on paper. So what we're gonna do is we're gonna choose eggs cooked cause you did cook them, even though they're soft boiled. So that's what we're gonna start with. And you know, you can always scroll down here and kind of see if there's anything that really like stands out to that matches. What's better, but
33
00:06:55.446 --> 00:07:00.355
Breta, MS, RDN - HSN Team: easy enough for eggs. We're gonna click cooked. And then did you just have one egg.
34
00:07:00.846 --> 00:07:03.103
Lorna Nichols: One egg, and then a rice cake.
35
00:07:03.856 --> 00:07:28.095
Breta, MS, RDN - HSN Team: Awesome. So what you'll do here then, and I normally uncheck the time it it's totally up to you. But say, you have eggs every single day. What I'm also gonna do is click on this little star here. So that way it goes onto my favorites list, and I will show you what that looks like in just a second. But you had one large egg, and I'm gonna go ahead and a enter that under breakfast. Gonna go to add to diary.
36
00:07:28.126 --> 00:07:32.465
Breta, MS, RDN - HSN Team: I'm going to come back to foods. And we're going to do a rice cake.
37
00:07:34.066 --> 00:07:39.556
Breta, MS, RDN - HSN Team: We're gonna add that in. We're gonna say one. Do you think it's about 4 inches? Or do you think it's larger.
38
00:07:39.756 --> 00:07:49.045
Breta, MS, RDN - HSN Team: perfect, awesome? I'm also gonna add that to breakfast? And if you're having that every day I'm gonna go ahead and favorite that and put that in alright. What else did you have.
39
00:07:51.376 --> 00:07:54.695
Lorna Nichols: one and a half cups of milk.
40
00:07:54.796 --> 00:07:56.116
Lorna Nichols: 2%.
41
00:07:56.446 --> 00:07:57.046
Breta, MS, RDN - HSN Team: Pipe.
42
00:07:58.906 --> 00:08:03.606
Breta, MS, RDN - HSN Team: We want to make sure that when we are choosing things like milk and dairy products, that we do get the fat
43
00:08:03.656 --> 00:08:10.555
Breta, MS, RDN - HSN Team: as close as possible. It's gonna make your tracking a little more accurate. So that is one thing that we do want to be more specific on.
44
00:08:10.746 --> 00:08:11.286
Breta, MS, RDN - HSN Team: It's and.
45
00:08:11.286 --> 00:08:14.876
Lorna Nichols: Actually raw milk, but it's there is no raw milk option. So.
46
00:08:14.876 --> 00:08:16.005
Breta, MS, RDN - HSN Team: Yeah, that's nice.
47
00:08:16.006 --> 00:08:24.115
Lorna Nichols: Problem I found with that is, I think they might be thinking that there's vitamin A and D added to this. But of course there isn't to raw milk.
48
00:08:25.736 --> 00:08:30.036
Breta, MS, RDN - HSN Team: You're right, there isn't, and sometimes we just have to take that into account.
49
00:08:30.036 --> 00:08:30.596
Lorna Nichols: Right.
50
00:08:30.596 --> 00:08:34.059
Breta, MS, RDN - HSN Team: So that's into like into knowing, too, and like what?
51
00:08:34.546 --> 00:08:36.845
Breta, MS, RDN - HSN Team: what matters nutritionally?
52
00:08:37.056 --> 00:09:06.826
Breta, MS, RDN - HSN Team: And if we're looking at like our vitamin A and our vitamin d, you know. In general, our vitamin d from food is not going to be as impactful as vitamin d from the sun and vitamin d from supplements. But I'm gonna show you how to look at that a little more closely, so you can see, hey? Where are my main sources of vitamin? A. And are they coming from significant sources? So I'll show you that as well. So the biggest thing here on chronometer, though, is that we're making sure that we're choosing how we're actually measuring it. So you had one and a fourth cup. You said.
53
00:09:07.026 --> 00:09:07.976
Lorna Nichols: One and a half.
54
00:09:07.976 --> 00:09:17.815
Breta, MS, RDN - HSN Team: One and a half. So 1.5 cups. And we're just gonna start with that. And you can see I didn't select breakfast on this one, but all you have to do is drag and drop, and it will go in here.
55
00:09:18.046 --> 00:09:20.375
Breta, MS, RDN - HSN Team: So I'm gonna pause our
56
00:09:20.536 --> 00:09:30.516
Breta, MS, RDN - HSN Team: breakfast conversation for now, so I can show you this next step. If you're having this every single day. All you have to do now is click shift.
57
00:09:30.546 --> 00:09:33.895
Breta, MS, RDN - HSN Team: and you can select each of these. Okay.
58
00:09:33.946 --> 00:09:42.006
Breta, MS, RDN - HSN Team: you click on the 3 dots in the upper right corner right here. And we're going to go. Actually, sorry. Hold on a second.
59
00:09:43.026 --> 00:09:44.626
Breta, MS, RDN - HSN Team: You're gonna right. Click
60
00:09:44.746 --> 00:09:51.246
Breta, MS, RDN - HSN Team: on the the highlighted items. And what we're going to do is create a meal from selected items.
61
00:09:52.026 --> 00:09:55.995
Breta, MS, RDN - HSN Team: So now we're going to say we're going to name this
62
00:09:56.986 --> 00:09:58.226
Breta, MS, RDN - HSN Team: breakfast.
63
00:09:59.626 --> 00:10:04.395
Breta, MS, RDN - HSN Team: And if this is something you're having every day, I'm also gonna favorite this right here.
64
00:10:04.536 --> 00:10:06.705
Breta, MS, RDN - HSN Team: And then I'm going to hit save changes.
65
00:10:07.456 --> 00:10:20.556
Breta, MS, RDN - HSN Team: I'm gonna pop back into my diary and say, I want to go to to. It's tomorrow. I want to enter my breakfast in. When I go to add in foods. I'm gonna click on. Ca, actually, I can click on favorites because I've added it to favorites.
66
00:10:20.646 --> 00:10:26.475
Breta, MS, RDN - HSN Team: And you can see right here I have new breakfast, so all I have to do is select that.
67
00:10:26.676 --> 00:10:53.826
Breta, MS, RDN - HSN Team: add it to my diary, and then boom! All the things have just automatically dropped in. So if you find yourself eating the same thing regularly, you know, for breakfast, or you have like a set you know, maybe a set smoothie recipe or a protein shake recipe. I would definitely recommend turning those into custom meals for yourself and then adding those to your favorites list. So then it's just okay. Boom, boom, boom! Done like you're just clicking down the list because you already know what you had.
68
00:10:54.876 --> 00:10:57.675
Breta, MS, RDN - HSN Team: Do you guys have any questions about adding food, just
69
00:10:57.776 --> 00:11:00.206
Breta, MS, RDN - HSN Team: adding of those foods together as meals.
70
00:11:03.716 --> 00:11:12.666
Lorna Nichols: This is a question that is maybe off the subject. But what exactly I I see their macronutrients. I never understood the difference between
71
00:11:13.336 --> 00:11:15.305
Lorna Nichols: and micronutrients.
72
00:11:15.306 --> 00:11:17.911
Breta, MS, RDN - HSN Team: Yeah, that's a really great question.
73
00:11:18.526 --> 00:11:19.846
Breta, MS, RDN - HSN Team: so
74
00:11:20.136 --> 00:11:21.756
Breta, MS, RDN - HSN Team: let me
75
00:11:22.676 --> 00:11:46.996
Breta, MS, RDN - HSN Team: ye. So I'm gonna answer a couple of chat questions. And I'm gonna circle back to that. So yes, you can modify custom meals. If you wanna modify your custom meals. You come over to the custom meals button on the left hand side, and then you like. You can come back here and it'll show you all your custom meals, and you just select it. And then you can actually add items to it. Here, and you can change it and do whatever you need to.
76
00:11:47.266 --> 00:12:02.165
Breta, MS, RDN - HSN Team: And then yes, you can also do all of this on the phone app as well, which I will show you how to do. The phone app on the free version of the app. I believe you can create custom meals, but I can circle back on that because I'm not 100 sure.
77
00:12:02.216 --> 00:12:03.236
Breta, MS, RDN - HSN Team: So okay, awesome.
78
00:12:03.236 --> 00:12:13.665
Sharon: Can you? Can you temporarily add something to a custom meal like, say, it's not something you usually have, but you had it with your custom meal.
79
00:12:13.846 --> 00:12:19.435
Breta, MS, RDN - HSN Team: Yeah, so I would go ahead and add the custom meal. Then, so say, like we had
80
00:12:20.396 --> 00:12:22.206
Breta, MS, RDN - HSN Team: on Friday.
81
00:12:22.536 --> 00:12:34.616
Breta, MS, RDN - HSN Team: let me just move my zoom stuff around. I'm gonna go ahead and add my new breakfast to Friday. And then I'm just gonna add, maybe I also had some avocado with that.
82
00:12:35.526 --> 00:12:44.045
Breta, MS, RDN - HSN Team: So I'm gonna search for avocado under all. And then I'm just going to add in how much I thought I had. Maybe I had 4 slices
83
00:12:44.526 --> 00:12:53.755
Breta, MS, RDN - HSN Team: and then boom! It's just you can just add that there. And if you wanted to change the meal as a whole, you can go into the custom meals right here. But
84
00:12:54.166 --> 00:12:54.966
Breta, MS, RDN - HSN Team: let's
85
00:12:55.826 --> 00:13:19.855
Breta, MS, RDN - HSN Team: let's circle back to these macronutrient targets, because I do think this will help you guys understand everything. A lot better. So our macronutrients are going to be protein carbs and fats. And so Macro is bit like means big. So they're just our larger size nutrients. Those are things that our body is going to break down. So we have protein carbs and fat, and then how chronometer labels calories is as energy, which I think, is awesome.
86
00:13:19.856 --> 00:13:43.609
Breta, MS, RDN - HSN Team: because I know that so many of us kind of get caught up in this idea of like calorie counting. And we always, you know from what our studies told us, we always want fewer calories, but when we shift that thinking into talking about energy and calories as energy, I feel like that actually promotes which most people here are gonna need more energy. We need a lot of energy to build bone. We need a lot of material
87
00:13:43.976 --> 00:14:00.165
Breta, MS, RDN - HSN Team: to like. We need a lot of macronutrients, and we need a lot of micronutrients to build that bone. So when we think about getting enough energy versus not overdoing it on our calories. I think that's a really great mindset shift. But just so, you know, that is what we're looking at and how we
88
00:14:00.376 --> 00:14:15.486
Breta, MS, RDN - HSN Team: denote calories is K. Cal. So the calories that you see on a food label, those are actually, even though it just says calories. They're actually kilo calories, which is why they're listed here as Kcal. So just so you can understand that a little bit more
89
00:14:15.616 --> 00:14:43.626
Breta, MS, RDN - HSN Team: now on our protein goals here the cool thing about chronometer is actually, if you come and shift or just scroll over these bars, it will tell you where your sources of protein are coming from, and what those main sources are. So I think that's a really awesome way to use that so if I come over here and I'm like, okay, look, I am getting, you know, 12 grams of protein from milk, and 6 grams of protein from egg. Well.
90
00:14:43.806 --> 00:14:56.175
Breta, MS, RDN - HSN Team: this whole meal is only 20 grams of protein, and I'm my goal is to get closer to 30 grams of protein for breakfast. So how can I do that? Well, if I add 2 more eggs. Then, boom! I've met my.
91
00:14:56.686 --> 00:15:05.715
Breta, MS, RDN - HSN Team: I've met my protein goal for the break for my breakfast, and that instead of having to be like, okay, what other protein foods can I add in and trying to, you know, make
92
00:15:05.816 --> 00:15:26.746
Breta, MS, RDN - HSN Team: make it a really big deal. You can just look at what you're already getting, and adjust your portion sizes based on based on your current intake. So I think that can be really helpful. Same thing when you scroll over carbohydrates, it's gonna show you where most of your carbohydrates are coming from. I do think that is really helpful to just check out as well as your fats, so you can make those adjustments. Now.
93
00:15:26.836 --> 00:15:36.585
Breta, MS, RDN - HSN Team: when it comes to our micronutrients, our micronutrients are going to be vitamins and minerals. So all of these things here under vitamins and minerals.
94
00:15:36.586 --> 00:16:00.145
Breta, MS, RDN - HSN Team: these are our micronutrients. And so when if you've done the bone foundation scores, you'll probably have seen. That one of the modules is macronutrients, and one of the modules is micronutrients. And that's really how we're breaking them down. And to like that overall arching meal, composition and protein carbs and fats, and then all of those vitamins and minerals that we need to build bone and stay healthy and promote adequate energy levels.
95
00:16:00.146 --> 00:16:00.976
Breta, MS, RDN - HSN Team: So
96
00:16:01.386 --> 00:16:26.316
Breta, MS, RDN - HSN Team: the the really cool thing about this is just like you can scroll over each of those macronutrients. You can also scroll over each of these minerals so you can find out what your best sources are. So like. Let's look at zinc right here. You can see you're actually getting a decent amount of zinc from your milk, and if you were to say, Cut back on milk, for whatever reason, then you can know that, hey? That actually might impact some of mine.
97
00:16:26.316 --> 00:16:37.295
Breta, MS, RDN - HSN Team: my overall like mineral intake. Or if you're cutting back, I think a better example in this case is if you're cutting back on your milk, that's really gonna impact your protein consumption.
98
00:16:37.296 --> 00:16:59.986
Breta, MS, RDN - HSN Team: So those kinds of things is how it's how we can start to reframe and learn about our food through using chronometer instead of just tracking. To make sure you hit your macronutrients, we can start understanding. Where is our nutrition coming from. And how can I just make these small, really specific tweaks to what I'm already doing to meet my goals? And I think that's the most helpful thing.
99
00:17:00.106 --> 00:17:00.896
Breta, MS, RDN - HSN Team: Yeah, I don't know.
100
00:17:00.896 --> 00:17:03.726
Al Kral: Decide whether you want carbs or net carbs.
101
00:17:04.065 --> 00:17:25.806
Breta, MS, RDN - HSN Team: You do have to decide if you want carbs or net carbs. And so here is my rule of thumb on carbs or net carbs. If you have healthy blood sugars so, and your a one C is normal. Your fasting insulin is normal, and you are trying to maybe gain weight or maintain your weight, then I would always choose net carbs.
102
00:17:25.806 --> 00:17:50.265
Breta, MS, RDN - HSN Team: If your goal is to lose weight, or you have to like altered blood sugar, metabolism. So you have a high fasting insulin, and you have a high A one. C. Then I would recommend choosing net carbs or sorry total carbs total carbs for that one? So what happens with the carbohydrates? The difference between carbohydrates and net carbohydrates.
103
00:17:50.986 --> 00:18:02.575
Breta, MS, RDN - HSN Team: is it? If we're including fiber into the picture or not. And in general we want everyone to be getting a lot of fiber. We don't really want you restricting fiber at any point. However.
104
00:18:02.706 --> 00:18:11.686
Breta, MS, RDN - HSN Team: what typically happens when we're tracking total carbs over net carbs is that we end up eating on more like
105
00:18:12.068 --> 00:18:35.836
Breta, MS, RDN - HSN Team: ultra processed food so like. And there's nothing wrong with a great keto bread. Sometimes we need that. But if we're tracking net carbs and you're trying to be really diligent about your nutrition and your intake, and you know, making those right choices. Not all Keto breads are created equal, and what we see a lot of times is that people still end up overeating on ultra processed foods when we track net carbs. So
106
00:18:35.896 --> 00:18:57.435
Breta, MS, RDN - HSN Team: that's kind of how we're putting those pieces together. And it's definitely a personal choice on. If you're tracking total carbs or net carbs. But I never then. And then the nice thing about this, too, is if you are tracking total carbs, and you were to scroll over this, and let's add something in here. Let me put in some lunch. Let's just add a salad. Actually.
107
00:19:00.336 --> 00:19:04.725
Breta, MS, RDN - HSN Team: Let's see. I'll add one of my osteoporosis meals here instead.
108
00:19:06.466 --> 00:19:12.636
Breta, MS, RDN - HSN Team: Okay, so you can see our carbohydrates are up a little bit here, and
109
00:19:12.806 --> 00:19:15.365
Breta, MS, RDN - HSN Team: on our carb levels.
110
00:19:16.476 --> 00:19:24.725
Breta, MS, RDN - HSN Team: Our green beans are 9 grams of carbs. So if you want to see what's in an individual food, all you have to do is click on it.
111
00:19:25.456 --> 00:19:41.036
Breta, MS, RDN - HSN Team: So we have 9 grams of carbs in our one cup of green beans. But if I scroll down here I'm gonna see that they have 4 grams of fiber just awesome. So then I can look at this. And I'm right now I'm tracking total carbs. So total carbs.
112
00:19:41.206 --> 00:19:50.166
Breta, MS, RDN - HSN Team: 9.9 grams. Fiber is 4 grams. So really in my net carbs. It's only, you know, 5, 6 grams of carbohydrate. And so
113
00:19:50.256 --> 00:20:08.215
Breta, MS, RDN - HSN Team: if you go over your carbohydrate goal because you're just eating so many vegetables, and you don't have any gi symptoms or any reason to exclude any of that stuff. Then that's something that you can take into consideration, and you can come down here and look and say, Okay, well, I, my
114
00:20:08.306 --> 00:20:17.106
Breta, MS, RDN - HSN Team: biggest sources of carbs are all from vegetables. So maybe I'm not actually worried about going over my carbohydrate goal. So there is a lot of nuance into interpreting that.
115
00:20:17.984 --> 00:20:22.386
Breta, MS, RDN - HSN Team: I wanna pop over to a couple of the questions in the chat.
116
00:20:23.023 --> 00:20:43.045
Breta, MS, RDN - HSN Team: I do a lot of food prep and freeze meals. What's the best way to create custom recipes to ensure it's divided up into the right servings. Great question. So we can also use this custom recipes feature here, and the nice thing is that you can add a recipe, and you can put in everything on your own to do that.
117
00:20:43.106 --> 00:20:52.475
Breta, MS, RDN - HSN Team: Sorry. My zoom stuff is just in my way. All you have to do is click, add ingredients, and then come back over to foods, and you can add in all the foods that would be
118
00:20:53.299 --> 00:21:00.145
Breta, MS, RDN - HSN Team: come over to foods. Search for the foods. You add in all of the foods that would be in there. What you can also do.
119
00:21:00.346 --> 00:21:16.686
Breta, MS, RDN - HSN Team: I'm gonna go back. I'm gonna import a recipe here. I've already pulled this one. So say, you're making a recipe from the Internet, and you want to easily put it into chronometer. We're just gonna copy and paste the URL into here and hit import.
120
00:21:17.226 --> 00:21:35.036
Breta, MS, RDN - HSN Team: and it's just gonna read the recipe. But it'll pull in all of those ingredients, at least for the most part. And then you can see all of this is here. Now, if it says not found you can just do a manually search or search. So I'm just gonna search for Cilantro.
121
00:21:36.146 --> 00:21:37.606
Breta, MS, RDN - HSN Team: gonna do raw
122
00:21:37.736 --> 00:21:39.096
Breta, MS, RDN - HSN Team: and update
123
00:21:39.206 --> 00:21:44.566
Breta, MS, RDN - HSN Team: cool. So then the whole recipe has been put in here now, and
124
00:21:44.706 --> 00:21:52.505
Breta, MS, RDN - HSN Team: what you want to do is adjust the servings per recipe. So if you're doing your food prep. What I would say to do is
125
00:21:52.846 --> 00:22:09.286
Breta, MS, RDN - HSN Team: put in the entire recipe. So if you're making this doesn't like an example like a whole casserole. Put in everything that went into that casserole, and then make your serving sizes the number of like individual pieces it's going to be.
126
00:22:09.286 --> 00:22:36.816
Breta, MS, RDN - HSN Team: even if you so say you have this casserole, you cut it into 12 pieces, maybe every day you eat 2 pieces of the casserole. That's fine. But then what you know to do is to actually just go in and adjust your serving sizes when you go and import your food, to say 2 servings. So say, this is well, okay, this is for servings. So that's great. I'm gonna go ahead and save the changes to this.
127
00:22:36.936 --> 00:22:39.306
Breta, MS, RDN - HSN Team: and then I'm going to add it to my diary.
128
00:22:39.636 --> 00:22:42.885
Breta, MS, RDN - HSN Team: and then we're going to pop back in here. Okay.
129
00:22:43.861 --> 00:22:46.896
Breta, MS, RDN - HSN Team: that was on. Let me see
130
00:22:48.196 --> 00:22:49.276
Breta, MS, RDN - HSN Team: me.
131
00:22:49.556 --> 00:22:51.346
Breta, MS, RDN - HSN Team: it's custom.
132
00:22:52.296 --> 00:22:53.306
Breta, MS, RDN - HSN Team: And
133
00:22:58.336 --> 00:23:00.065
Breta, MS, RDN - HSN Team: I can spell today.
134
00:23:01.676 --> 00:23:06.056
Breta, MS, RDN - HSN Team: Oh, here we go. Recipes. Oh, it did not save.
135
00:23:19.016 --> 00:23:19.696
Breta, MS, RDN - HSN Team: Thank.
136
00:23:19.826 --> 00:23:21.946
Breta, MS, RDN - HSN Team: try that again. See what happens.
137
00:23:22.326 --> 00:23:29.609
Breta, MS, RDN - HSN Team: Here we go. Okay? So okay, it added it twice. That's fine. But you can see that it shows up as one serving
138
00:23:30.206 --> 00:23:46.595
Breta, MS, RDN - HSN Team: Say, so, the entire recipe was actually for serving. So say, I actually ended up eating half of the entire recipe. All I'm gonna do is change my serving size to 2. And then we have more accurate data there. So that is how I'd recommend putting in those pieces
139
00:23:46.596 --> 00:24:00.416
Breta, MS, RDN - HSN Team: and like putting those pieces together there. The other thing is, if you add your custom recipe here. And you're like, actually, I changed it for this meal, or I added something to it. You can click on this and say, so you're gonna right. Click.
140
00:24:01.346 --> 00:24:11.726
Breta, MS, RDN - HSN Team: hit, explode recipe, and then it will show you all of the things that are in there. So if you wanted to go and edit individual ingredients without changing your entire recipe. You can do that this way.
141
00:24:12.136 --> 00:24:32.215
Breta, MS, RDN - HSN Team: So I hope that's helpful for the the meal prep question. Adding supplements into micronutrient counts. Yes, you can add supplements into your micronutrient counts. You're just gonna add it as like a a custom food, I think is the easiest thing to do, and you can put in all of the micronutrients on
142
00:24:32.306 --> 00:24:44.366
Breta, MS, RDN - HSN Team: that are on the label. So if you go to add food here. So I came to custom foods over on the left. Add food, and then this is my let's see, maybe we'll just do like Al Jakal.
143
00:24:46.946 --> 00:24:50.406
Breta, MS, RDN - HSN Team: And then when you scroll down
144
00:24:51.836 --> 00:24:56.106
Breta, MS, RDN - HSN Team: to the advanced info, all you're gonna do is enter
145
00:24:56.296 --> 00:25:04.815
Breta, MS, RDN - HSN Team: the exact amount of whatever's in here. So if if it doesn't have any of these things on the label. You just skip them, leave them blank
146
00:25:05.254 --> 00:25:07.706
Breta, MS, RDN - HSN Team: but as you come down to
147
00:25:07.956 --> 00:25:11.136
Breta, MS, RDN - HSN Team: the vitamins you can come in here and
148
00:25:11.256 --> 00:25:18.245
Breta, MS, RDN - HSN Team: gotta remember what is actually in alchal. But you just click on this, and you can add like, let's see, 5,000
149
00:25:18.406 --> 00:25:20.866
Breta, MS, RDN - HSN Team: I use. And then boom! That's there.
150
00:25:21.276 --> 00:25:48.835
Breta, MS, RDN - HSN Team: and then you can save those changes and add it. Once you have all of those custom foods, you can actually create a custom meal, or a custom recipe out of all of your supplements if you want to, and then you can easily add them in for the whole day, so you can just it could be like Diane. Supplement stack is your custom meal. And then under that you've added, in all the custom foods that are actually your supplements.
151
00:25:48.946 --> 00:26:04.585
Breta, MS, RDN - HSN Team: So then you can just add the whole stack right away. If you missed one, you can explode the meal. You can delete the ones you skipped. If you added a new one, you can put that in so you can go back and change and update those custom meals as well, but that's what I'd recommend for supplements.
152
00:26:06.376 --> 00:26:08.156
Breta, MS, RDN - HSN Team: next question.
153
00:26:08.566 --> 00:26:13.485
Breta, MS, RDN - HSN Team: Yes, inner supplements as food. Yes, save in favorites. Love it jam
154
00:26:13.929 --> 00:26:17.686
Breta, MS, RDN - HSN Team: with the mobile app. I'm gonna circle back to mobile app questions.
155
00:26:19.456 --> 00:26:26.055
Breta, MS, RDN - HSN Team: Yes, vegetables and fruits are carbs talked about the net carbs versus total carbs, and generally don't recommend restricting
156
00:26:26.096 --> 00:26:35.945
Breta, MS, RDN - HSN Team: vegetables to hit your carb limit. Some people may or may not be more sensitive to fruit, but that's definitely an individual nutrition. Choice.
157
00:26:36.716 --> 00:27:01.216
Breta, MS, RDN - HSN Team: The system does recognize different brands on different items. It just depends on what the item is. So yes, on, Audrey commented. Under that some places don't have the recorded micronutrients. Again, you can go in and update that if you want to like, you could create a custom food out of a specific brand. But I wouldn't let perfect get in the way of good here. Because if you get
158
00:27:01.326 --> 00:27:17.536
Breta, MS, RDN - HSN Team: really, really micro with this, all of the time, you are gonna burn out on tracking pretty quickly. So, and you know, maybe you do eat the same food a lot, and if you do have, like the same brand of sardines a lot. Maybe you do. Wanna enter that as a food and save it as a favorite. But
159
00:27:17.926 --> 00:27:32.536
Breta, MS, RDN - HSN Team: if you're constantly, you know, like, Okay, well, this didn't have you know the exact right amount of vitamin B, that it said on the label, that's okay. We're looking at estimates here, and we don't. You know we have these goals that we want for the
160
00:27:32.636 --> 00:27:41.365
Breta, MS, RDN - HSN Team: daily recommended intake, or the daily recommended allowance that we're looking for. However
161
00:27:42.176 --> 00:28:04.878
Breta, MS, RDN - HSN Team: your body may or may not absorb all of that, anyway. So if it's a few milligrams different here, there, as long as you're in general meeting most of your goals, that's what we're looking at, and that is one of the benefits of like running through this data with your dietician, too. If you have one is that they'll be able to pick up on those nuances as well and kind of tell you, you know. Hey?
162
00:28:05.416 --> 00:28:27.914
Breta, MS, RDN - HSN Team: you might be way over on this. But actually, I'm not worried about that because we want we wanna see you getting a lot of B vitamins here, and the other thing to keep in mind, especially if you're adding in your supplement stack into Corona meter. You very well could be going over the Dr. And that might be something that we want you to do so as long as I know. Last week we talked about upper limits.
163
00:28:28.196 --> 00:28:47.845
Breta, MS, RDN - HSN Team: for like adverse effects that's definitely something to be mindful of. But for the most part a lot of times. We're recommending supplements that have really high doses, because your body just needs that much more to actually heal and build bone. So keep that in mind that those are generally look, we're looking at the minimum that you want. Not necessarily the maximum
164
00:28:51.120 --> 00:29:02.225
Breta, MS, RDN - HSN Team: chicken and broccoli at a Chinese restaurant that is actually good question. So some actual chain restaurants like, if you go to Panda express
165
00:29:02.546 --> 00:29:19.945
Breta, MS, RDN - HSN Team: anything that's like a big chain restaurant. You can actually search for that. And you'll see like, these are actual things on their menu. You know, if you're eating at Chick-fil-a, you can find, like the actual things on their menu here, and just pull that information right in. Now, if you're eating at like a local Chinese restaurant.
166
00:29:21.156 --> 00:29:22.116
Breta, MS, RDN - HSN Team: let's see.
167
00:29:26.026 --> 00:29:28.965
Breta, MS, RDN - HSN Team: broccoli! Oh, cool. So
168
00:29:30.016 --> 00:29:31.016
Breta, MS, RDN - HSN Team: let's see again.
169
00:29:33.326 --> 00:29:34.216
Breta, MS, RDN - HSN Team: Hmm!
170
00:29:34.416 --> 00:29:40.916
Breta, MS, RDN - HSN Team: What I normally recommend doing, too. Is just finding the thing that looks like it's going to be the closest
171
00:29:41.156 --> 00:29:46.326
Breta, MS, RDN - HSN Team: to what you're looking for. So if we want.
172
00:29:46.536 --> 00:29:50.436
Breta, MS, RDN - HSN Team: and we don't want any of the fettuccine ones, because we're looking for.
173
00:29:52.496 --> 00:29:53.486
Breta, MS, RDN - HSN Team: Yeah.
174
00:29:54.166 --> 00:30:00.085
Breta, MS, RDN - HSN Team: we're looking for like Chinese food, and that's going to be different. But, like, okay, chicken and broccoli, stir fry.
175
00:30:00.666 --> 00:30:23.906
Breta, MS, RDN - HSN Team: pick the best option. Just make sure your serving size is pretty accurate, so maybe you had 2 cups of that, and then add that in again here like, don't don't let the enemy of like don't let go perfect, be the enemy of good. Just put something down like. What's more important is that you're building a habit in tracking your nutrition intake than that every single thing that you put into chronometer is perfect.
176
00:30:25.073 --> 00:30:31.082
Breta, MS, RDN - HSN Team: Chronometer in the app store. I will show you guys what that looks like in just a second.
177
00:30:33.559 --> 00:30:40.405
Breta, MS, RDN - HSN Team: Well, we'll I'll pull up what it looks like in the app store, so you guys can find it. It should show up with a little red apple just like this.
178
00:30:40.436 --> 00:30:41.976
Breta, MS, RDN - HSN Team: And
179
00:30:42.356 --> 00:30:48.105
Breta, MS, RDN - HSN Team: 2. And yeah, a free version should have plenty of features for you guys.
180
00:30:48.386 --> 00:30:54.366
Breta, MS, RDN - HSN Team: Some supplements can be added by scanning the bar code. If you're using the phone app. Yep, we will cover that
181
00:30:57.576 --> 00:31:24.666
Breta, MS, RDN - HSN Team: explode. Yeah, just means expand. So you can right? You will. Wanna right click on those things. So for this one, right click. And you can see you can repeat the item you can copy to the day. So if I actually wanted to have this like right now, on the seventeenth, if I wanted to see this on the fifteenth, I could select copy to today and then go back to the fifteenth. And you can see, I've added that there
182
00:31:25.227 --> 00:31:28.436
Breta, MS, RDN - HSN Team: the other thing that you can do is
183
00:31:29.996 --> 00:31:31.926
Breta, MS, RDN - HSN Team: copy selected items.
184
00:31:32.596 --> 00:31:34.656
Breta, MS, RDN - HSN Team: and then you could go to any day.
185
00:31:35.256 --> 00:31:38.066
Breta, MS, RDN - HSN Team: and then you select these 3 dots right here
186
00:31:38.426 --> 00:31:39.766
Breta, MS, RDN - HSN Team: and hit paste.
187
00:31:39.766 --> 00:31:41.924
Jim: Freda, we're not seeing your
188
00:31:42.506 --> 00:31:43.955
Jim: your screen anymore.
189
00:31:43.956 --> 00:31:45.696
Breta, MS, RDN - HSN Team: Not seen. Chronometer.
190
00:31:45.696 --> 00:31:46.456
Jim: No
191
00:31:46.606 --> 00:31:47.716
Jim: on, under.
192
00:31:47.716 --> 00:31:48.446
Sharon: Seeing it.
193
00:31:51.506 --> 00:31:52.456
Lorna Nichols: Seeing it.
194
00:31:52.456 --> 00:31:54.015
nancy m: I'm huh! I'm seeing it.
195
00:31:55.586 --> 00:32:00.248
Breta, MS, RDN - HSN Team: Okay, hey? Jim, do you know, if you're like looking at
196
00:32:01.026 --> 00:32:04.055
Jim: I see your face. I'm not seeing chronometer anymore.
197
00:32:04.056 --> 00:32:04.966
Breta, MS, RDN - HSN Team: Is it black?
198
00:32:07.366 --> 00:32:08.146
Jim: No.
199
00:32:08.146 --> 00:32:27.206
Breta, MS, RDN - HSN Team: Okay, do me a favor and see if you have it in like a different window. So so in screen share, it often opens in like a full screen mode, and then it can sometimes put it on like a different side of your desktop. So take a look around your computer for that, and then send me a chat if you if you're not seeing it still.
200
00:32:28.086 --> 00:32:32.946
Breta, MS, RDN - HSN Team: Okay. But other people are seeing it. So I'm gonna assume it's being recorded. So
201
00:32:33.336 --> 00:32:51.185
Breta, MS, RDN - HSN Team: awesome. Okay? So questions about, I just wanna touch base on a few of these things and then we'll switch over to the mobile app. Why do some food show up with no data for most nutrients? It has everything to do with the database that they use. So there are a ton of foods.
202
00:32:51.511 --> 00:33:14.916
Breta, MS, RDN - HSN Team: Out there, right? The all of this data is pulled from the FDA nutrition database, which is generally gonna be the most accurate source that we have. However, not every company is required to put in. You know, they're required to put in the foods or the nutrients that are on their label. But it just has to do with labeling regulations. And what ends up in the FDA database.
203
00:33:14.916 --> 00:33:28.308
Breta, MS, RDN - HSN Team: So generally, I think searching for more general foods like eggs instead of like egglands. Best eggs is gonna give you. That's gonna be the easiest way to just get the foods on there, that's gonna be as close as possible to what you're doing.
204
00:33:28.775 --> 00:33:40.615
Breta, MS, RDN - HSN Team: And with that being said, keep in mind that you know, some of this data is going to be older. So when it comes to micronutrients, and you're like, well, actually, my chronometer says that I'm getting
205
00:33:41.296 --> 00:34:07.786
Breta, MS, RDN - HSN Team: you know, 1,200 milligrams of B 12, or I'm getting 700 milligrams of magnesium magnesium is a micronutrient in our soil. That's how the plants get it. Our soils very depleted. So even though the data says that there's that much magnesium in it, you still might need to be supplementing. And you're probably not getting it all from your diet, because the plants aren't getting that anymore. So there are some nuances and fluctuations like that as well.
206
00:34:08.414 --> 00:34:24.845
Breta, MS, RDN - HSN Team: Unfortunately, I'm just running through the list of questions in the chat right now, but unfortunately we don't offer dietician services without being on our full service plan, but there are plenty of dieticians out there in private practice, who can help you get started and definitely point you in the right direction. Nutrition wise
207
00:34:26.236 --> 00:34:30.360
Breta, MS, RDN - HSN Team: adjusting the macronutrients to match the ovh recommendations.
208
00:34:31.236 --> 00:34:33.586
Breta, MS, RDN - HSN Team: If you are
209
00:34:33.606 --> 00:34:42.165
Breta, MS, RDN - HSN Team: in, I think this is gonna be where my barrier comes in, that I am on one of our oh accounts. Because
210
00:34:43.136 --> 00:34:50.096
Breta, MS, RDN - HSN Team: your dietician and team can actually come in here and adjust everything. So
211
00:34:50.346 --> 00:34:52.685
Breta, MS, RDN - HSN Team: a few things that I recommend
212
00:34:52.776 --> 00:35:04.935
Breta, MS, RDN - HSN Team: not doing if you import your exercise cause. You want to see it. That is great. I don't normally recommend using the exercise
213
00:35:04.936 --> 00:35:28.036
Breta, MS, RDN - HSN Team: like calories burned, and factoring that into your goal for a couple like total energy goal for a few different reasons. Unless you are really really active and would consider yourself an athlete. Your body is gonna have a really, it's gonna do a really great job of maintaining that homeostasis. Second, if you're
214
00:35:28.116 --> 00:35:39.316
Breta, MS, RDN - HSN Team: if your goal is to lose weight, then often, when we're in importing that exercise. It's overestimating that total energy need. And there is still some like
215
00:35:39.316 --> 00:36:01.106
Breta, MS, RDN - HSN Team: a little, not not a lot of validity to like energy in versus energy out, but generally if your goal is weight loss, I would just focus on what your body needs. And the third thing is, is, if we're creating our nutrition goals for you correctly, we're actually accommodating the exercise that you're already doing. And so we've already predetermined that in there. So I don't recommend pulling that info.
216
00:36:01.376 --> 00:36:02.396
Breta, MS, RDN - HSN Team: So
217
00:36:03.286 --> 00:36:30.175
Breta, MS, RDN - HSN Team: to set your own macros. Something to start with would be well, you can look at your total energy intake that chronometer recommends for you, based on your height and your weight. And I would say, we wanna go a little bit over that. We definitely don't wanna be eating not enough. We always wanna make sure that we're eating enough first and foremost. So start with your protein goal and then work backwards from there determine if you have a carbohydrate restriction or not.
218
00:36:30.480 --> 00:36:35.965
Breta, MS, RDN - HSN Team: And then and you can base this on those ob plates that we've that I've put in slack.
219
00:36:35.966 --> 00:36:43.865
Breta, MS, RDN - HSN Team: so you can kind of look at those portion sizes on what would be your ideal carbohydrate intake and and match that up with
220
00:36:44.006 --> 00:37:08.706
Breta, MS, RDN - HSN Team: what you wanna be consuming for the day. And then I always just fill in the rest with fats, because fats are gonna make a huge difference in energy levels and hunger and fullness queues, and we need a lot of those good fats to absorb those fat, soluble vitamins that make such a big difference for Osteoporosis. But I with that being said, I don't think that on my account right now I can show you how to adjust these targets, because
221
00:37:09.038 --> 00:37:19.675
Breta, MS, RDN - HSN Team: I think that defaults to having your dietician. Oh, here we go, just kidding, just kidding on the more side of here. So on this left hand toolbar. If you scroll down.
222
00:37:19.706 --> 00:37:22.725
Breta, MS, RDN - HSN Team: you'll see more, it'll say profile and targets.
223
00:37:22.986 --> 00:37:47.430
Breta, MS, RDN - HSN Team: and then you'll be able to adjust all of this so you can change your height. You can change your weight. You can factor in your body fat percentage. It doesn't really matter. This is like an estimate that it gives you, based on your height and your weight, I would ignore that it's not going to be accurate. It also doesn't really matter. And then choose your activity level if you want to. So secondary, lightly active?
224
00:37:47.816 --> 00:37:50.946
Breta, MS, RDN - HSN Team: I would. Moderately active and very active.
225
00:37:51.066 --> 00:38:04.566
Breta, MS, RDN - HSN Team: very active is gonna be you know, if you that kind of category on. If you would consider yourself an athlete, and then everything else you can make your own selections on, and then for default versus custom.
226
00:38:04.656 --> 00:38:12.365
Breta, MS, RDN - HSN Team: This default right here is going to be based on this standard calculation, based on your height and your weight. So
227
00:38:12.752 --> 00:38:19.056
Breta, MS, RDN - HSN Team: totally up to you on. If you're doing this yourself. If you are working with us as a one on one client.
228
00:38:19.216 --> 00:38:44.366
Breta, MS, RDN - HSN Team: just ask your dietician. That is the benefit of being in our full service program is that they will tell you all the things that you need to know if you are doing this on your own, though then I would take this one plus this one, because it's gonna help. Make sure you're eating enough. Add those together, and then we're going to I'll show you how to create this this goal right here, I would always turn this off. So we don't want to replace with imported activity.
229
00:38:44.366 --> 00:38:55.745
Breta, MS, RDN - HSN Team: That means, if you have your fitbit, or your whoop, or your or ring connected, it would say, Okay, you need to eat an extra 200 calories today because you exercise this much.
230
00:38:56.576 --> 00:39:16.706
Breta, MS, RDN - HSN Team: ye? Yes, there are some benefits to doing that to make sure you are eating enough, but when we do that it actually creates moving targets. So and that's going to be a lot harder to actually eat what you're trying to eat when every single day your nutrition goals are changing. So I personally think it's more straightforward and clear. If you just
231
00:39:17.046 --> 00:39:21.305
Breta, MS, RDN - HSN Team: take into account what is your average day? Look like exercise wise.
232
00:39:21.446 --> 00:39:27.943
Breta, MS, RDN - HSN Team: build that into your nutrition recommendations, and set that for every day that way there's no moving targets.
233
00:39:28.546 --> 00:39:33.935
Breta, MS, RDN - HSN Team: So you can see I have this turned off. I have the thermic effect of food turned off.
234
00:39:35.126 --> 00:40:01.115
Breta, MS, RDN - HSN Team: This is just getting a little, too, in the weeds for what we're doing to talk about the thermic effective food. So feel free to send me a slack message about it, though, if you're curious. But it just we want to simplify things, not make things more complicated. So I'm gonna take this total, 1,627 calories. And I'm gonna use that. So I'm gonna update this actually, this custom energy target to 1627
235
00:40:01.706 --> 00:40:02.996
Breta, MS, RDN - HSN Team: to match this.
236
00:40:03.906 --> 00:40:20.896
Breta, MS, RDN - HSN Team: And then I wanna use I like using fixed values for macronutrients instead of percentages. If you use the macro ratios that creates a moving target. Fixed values keep things clear and straightforward. So I would always recommend doing that
237
00:40:21.056 --> 00:40:42.356
Breta, MS, RDN - HSN Team: and then set this to grams. So for me, I'm gonna actually increase this to 145 grams of protein. I'm gonna keep my carbs the same. But then you can see, hey? Actually, I'll probably increase my carbs because it will warn you. It says your fixed values are way less or
238
00:40:42.426 --> 00:40:49.785
Breta, MS, RDN - HSN Team: or yeah, which are way lower than you're like goal. So I'm just gonna increase this to 100 grams of carbs.
239
00:40:49.826 --> 00:41:09.515
Breta, MS, RDN - HSN Team: and then everything's happy. This value, says 1,700 calories per day that feels like a good amount for what I want my macronutrients to be. And what I'm happy with, it's also really close to this goal. So what I'm going to do is actually make this my goal so that everything matches.
240
00:41:09.616 --> 00:41:12.366
Breta, MS, RDN - HSN Team: So I'm going to change that to 1,700,
241
00:41:13.216 --> 00:41:18.975
Breta, MS, RDN - HSN Team: and then we should be all set. I'm tracking total carbs, but you can switch that to net carbs.
242
00:41:18.996 --> 00:41:27.044
Breta, MS, RDN - HSN Team: And if you have really specific vitamin goals that you're trying to hit, and you're like, actually, they told me I needed to have.
243
00:41:27.716 --> 00:41:56.935
Breta, MS, RDN - HSN Team: you know a thousand milligrams of magnesium per day, which may or may not work for you. So just take that with a grain of salt, please, but what you can do is Co. To accommodate your supplements. If you wanted to, you can come into like the minerals, and you could actually come down here to magnesium and update this so I want my target to maybe be 700 milligrams per day. I don't want to go over a thousand milligrams per day. And I want to use this custom value instead of the standard value. I'm gonna hit, apply.
244
00:41:56.986 --> 00:41:59.435
Breta, MS, RDN - HSN Team: And you can see it has added that
245
00:41:59.736 --> 00:42:18.546
Breta, MS, RDN - HSN Team: if there's stuff that you don't want to track, and that you don't care about tracking, you can also come in here and turn all of it off, which is nice. So if you're like, I'm never looking at my molybdenum like you can turn that off cause you're probably not gonna get very good data on it, anyway. So there's
246
00:42:18.776 --> 00:42:23.681
Breta, MS, RDN - HSN Team: some tips like that on updating your macro recommendations.
247
00:42:24.306 --> 00:42:26.536
Breta, MS, RDN - HSN Team: see? Back to some questions.
248
00:42:26.846 --> 00:42:40.135
Breta, MS, RDN - HSN Team: Yeah, I'll definitely share the recipe to for the cabbage chicken. I really do like the ambitious kitchen websites as far as like their their recipes and stuff. And even if you're looking for just different kinds of like
249
00:42:40.266 --> 00:42:44.655
Breta, MS, RDN - HSN Team: dietary restrictions and stuff, they do a really good job at categorizing things like that.
250
00:42:45.006 --> 00:42:45.676
Breta, MS, RDN - HSN Team: Aye.
251
00:42:45.676 --> 00:42:51.726
Sharon: Question about the card. She just did getting it from all or net.
252
00:42:52.416 --> 00:42:57.106
Sharon: If you do net carbs, it won't track fiber. Is that the difference.
253
00:42:57.396 --> 00:43:17.675
Breta, MS, RDN - HSN Team: Yeah, if you do net carbs, it actually subtracts it subtracts the fiber from your carbohydrate intake. So if something has 15 grams of carbohydrate and 5 grams of fiber. Then if you're tracking net carbs, it's only gonna
254
00:43:17.736 --> 00:43:27.156
Breta, MS, RDN - HSN Team: show up as that 15 grams of carbohydrate. If you're tracking total carbs. It's actually going to show up as 20 grams, because it's adding in the fiber.
255
00:43:29.106 --> 00:43:30.685
Jennifer Doak: Brett, do you have a
256
00:43:31.716 --> 00:43:32.756
Jennifer Doak: preference?
257
00:43:34.137 --> 00:43:44.576
Jennifer Doak: But I just I think I still always have this thing in my head about Carbs and what I'm tracking, because at this point eating
258
00:43:44.996 --> 00:43:47.466
Jennifer Doak: things in packages and gluten like
259
00:43:47.576 --> 00:43:50.586
Jennifer Doak: the only cards I'm eating is vegetables really.
260
00:43:50.887 --> 00:44:11.065
Breta, MS, RDN - HSN Team: I think if you're predominantly eating vegetables as your carbohydrates, then you should track net carbs because it's actually gonna make sure that you're getting enough and getting enough energy in there. It's really like playing that psychological game right like, how can I make sure that I'm not chronically under eating, and what's the best way for, like me to present the numbers to myself?
261
00:44:11.276 --> 00:44:18.156
Jennifer Doak: So so next and so, but but in in a situation where someone or any of us that are
262
00:44:18.836 --> 00:44:29.005
Jennifer Doak: being very strict, you know I'm not a fan of any of the gluten free. So I just had my funeral for anything that is in a package. With regard to that, it's like, okay?
263
00:44:29.456 --> 00:44:30.686
Jennifer Doak: So
264
00:44:30.756 --> 00:44:34.246
Jennifer Doak: in that case, really, a carb is like a
265
00:44:34.386 --> 00:44:36.928
Jennifer Doak: banana, a potato
266
00:44:38.286 --> 00:44:39.496
Breta, MS, RDN - HSN Team: Yeah, so.
267
00:44:39.496 --> 00:44:43.306
Jennifer Doak: Kind of thing as opposed to like a green vegetable or a.
268
00:44:44.016 --> 00:44:45.566
Jennifer Doak: Or something like that.
269
00:44:45.566 --> 00:45:03.126
Breta, MS, RDN - HSN Team: So our rule of thumb is for vegetables. We have non starchy vegetables, and we have starchy vegetables, so non starchy vegetables leak leafy greens, zucchini, yellow squash, things like that which you can learn where they're at. Cause if you're putting in what you're tracking, and then you're like, oh, wait!
270
00:45:03.146 --> 00:45:13.066
Breta, MS, RDN - HSN Team: Maybe that is way. More carbs than I thought it was. So definitely using it as a tool for education. But those are going to be 5 grams of carbohydrate per serving, which is
271
00:45:13.396 --> 00:45:19.026
Breta, MS, RDN - HSN Team: generally about a cup like like a one cup, like measuring cup of that.
272
00:45:19.026 --> 00:45:20.426
Jennifer Doak: But non starchy.
273
00:45:20.426 --> 00:45:33.097
Breta, MS, RDN - HSN Team: Yes, and then for starchy vegetables, that's gonna be our peas, corn and potatoes. If you consider corn a vegetable druck does not. It goes in the grain category. But those things are gonna be our starchy vegetables, and those are gonna.
274
00:45:33.386 --> 00:45:34.927
Al Kral: Is how ad one works.
275
00:45:35.828 --> 00:45:45.406
Breta, MS, RDN - HSN Team: And those are going to be 15 grams of carbohydrate per serving, and those serving sizes vary, and generally it's about a half cup of a serving size.
276
00:45:45.406 --> 00:45:48.716
Jennifer Doak: And so that's why I can see why you would put fruit in there. Maybe.
277
00:45:48.716 --> 00:46:01.926
Breta, MS, RDN - HSN Team: Yes. And so those fruit are also gonna we would put those in the starchy vegetable category because generally they're presented as like, we would present those in 15 grams of carbohydrate serving sizes.
278
00:46:01.926 --> 00:46:02.516
Jennifer Doak: Okay.
279
00:46:02.906 --> 00:46:11.465
Jennifer Doak: That that actually helps a lot. I mean, because sometimes when you're thinking about the carbs, I'm not, I'm not trying to undo it. But I also don't want it to become a
280
00:46:12.086 --> 00:46:12.826
Jennifer Doak: yeah.
281
00:46:12.826 --> 00:46:16.758
Breta, MS, RDN - HSN Team: We are also focused on metabolic health. And that's just not
282
00:46:17.156 --> 00:46:20.155
Breta, MS, RDN - HSN Team: compatible for everyone eating that many carbs. So yeah.
283
00:46:20.156 --> 00:46:20.966
Jennifer Doak: Nicole.
284
00:46:21.146 --> 00:46:43.144
Breta, MS, RDN - HSN Team: And the other thing like with our fruits. As well. You saw your berries are gonna be a lot lower in carbohydrate. But I think, focusing on like that total. And then you can kind of like break it down into how much you need. So a lot of times if I'm having somebody track total carbs because they do wanna carve restriction, but they are doing really great with eating a lot of like fruits and vegetables.
285
00:46:43.416 --> 00:47:06.196
Breta, MS, RDN - HSN Team: Then, instead of doing like a really low carb recommendation, I would maybe say, like, Hey, let's do 75 grams of total carb to give you that flexibility to have more of those like fruits and vegetables in there. And so then, what you can do is break that down. So if we have 75 grams of carbs to work with. That means over our 3 meals. We have 25 grams for each meal.
286
00:47:06.196 --> 00:47:14.076
Breta, MS, RDN - HSN Team: and generally like a starchy vegetable or fruit serving is going to be 15 grams of carbs, which means you have 2
287
00:47:14.076 --> 00:47:18.806
Breta, MS, RDN - HSN Team: 5 grams of carbohydrate from your non-starchy vegetable servings to fill in that gap.
288
00:47:19.096 --> 00:47:24.646
Jennifer Doak: I think it's just really hard when you're trying to. You answered a lot of my questions, but just
289
00:47:24.976 --> 00:47:34.385
Jennifer Doak: what we consider fiber and getting enough in cause, honestly getting 35 if I don't put in chia seeds and some some of that I'm not getting there because
290
00:47:34.416 --> 00:47:36.905
Jennifer Doak: everything has so little. Honestly.
291
00:47:37.746 --> 00:47:54.555
Breta, MS, RDN - HSN Team: Yeah, it it does, I know. And and and you really have to be eating a lot of vegetables. And I think, what we think is a serving size is different than what is actually considered a serving size as well. And you don't. Just to be clear about this. A serving size is
292
00:47:55.046 --> 00:48:03.515
Breta, MS, RDN - HSN Team: the serving size of what we're measuring. It's a tool that we use to do. Math with a serving size is not how much you should be eating
293
00:48:05.056 --> 00:48:21.488
Breta, MS, RDN - HSN Team: so that will vary based on the person. So like, if you get a a salad like a bag salad from the grocery store generally, that's gonna be for servings. But you could actually eat the entire salad. Yes, I do. I do. That's why.
294
00:48:21.846 --> 00:48:29.402
Jennifer Doak: Well, I mean, and honestly, I'm sure all of you have run into this. But depending on, you know which one
295
00:48:29.796 --> 00:48:34.235
Jennifer Doak: you'd be surprised. Some of them are like. The whole thing is.
296
00:48:35.186 --> 00:48:35.846
Jennifer Doak: You know?
297
00:48:36.126 --> 00:48:37.206
Jennifer Doak: Yeah, so.
298
00:48:37.206 --> 00:48:43.806
Breta, MS, RDN - HSN Team: Yeah. And this other question here in the chat, real quick. They
299
00:48:43.946 --> 00:48:45.136
Breta, MS, RDN - HSN Team: so
300
00:48:45.816 --> 00:48:50.095
Breta, MS, RDN - HSN Team: chronometer doesn't track fiber differently based on. If you select
301
00:48:50.146 --> 00:49:04.305
Breta, MS, RDN - HSN Team: total carbs or net carbs chronometer instead. It's always gonna track the fiber, and it's always gonna track the carbohydrate. It will just present your carbohydrate number differently as a total. So on.
302
00:49:04.756 --> 00:49:16.506
Breta, MS, RDN - HSN Team: Hold on! Let me flip back over here. So I think we're done with those. So this carbohydrate level. This will show up higher or lower, based on. If it's factoring in the fiber to this equation.
303
00:49:17.186 --> 00:49:27.415
Breta, MS, RDN - HSN Team: Yeah, it's honestly, it's just a bunch of math. It's like a big spreadsheet. And it, it's a lot. And and there's a lot of nuance that goes into it. And we have to factor in your individual needs, too.
304
00:49:27.761 --> 00:49:51.940
Breta, MS, RDN - HSN Team: I this other comment here in the chat, I cannot comment on the ratios of zinc to copper, phosphorus and calcium. I we don't necessarily use those in our practice. I will double check with the team, though, to see if they are using this at all. But in general there's just so much more that goes into like. Are you getting enough, calcium? Are you getting enough?
305
00:49:52.286 --> 00:50:06.206
Breta, MS, RDN - HSN Team: phosphorus, you know. Are you getting enough zinc or copper that I don't think this is probably the best tool for that or does it really matter? That's the other thing. But I'll double check on that with our team to see if they're using that for anything.
306
00:50:06.456 --> 00:50:13.125
Breta, MS, RDN - HSN Team: Okay, I'm gonna switch gears here real quick. I want to show you guys on the app just in the last 5 min.
307
00:50:13.386 --> 00:50:15.925
Breta, MS, RDN - HSN Team: So give me 1 s
308
00:50:18.656 --> 00:50:22.306
Breta, MS, RDN - HSN Team: because it does show up a touch differently.
309
00:50:34.526 --> 00:50:37.025
Breta, MS, RDN - HSN Team: Okay, awesome. Okay.
310
00:50:37.686 --> 00:50:58.816
Breta, MS, RDN - HSN Team: So this is what chromometer on your phone looks like it will generally default you to the dashboard page. What we wanna do here is you can click on. Sorry. See if I can move that out of the way. Okay, you can click on the diary button in the bottom left hand corner like on that bottom bar. So if you click on diary.
311
00:50:58.956 --> 00:51:05.135
Breta, MS, RDN - HSN Team: this is synced up with all the stuff I just put in today. So you can see how everything is showing up here
312
00:51:05.146 --> 00:51:08.506
Breta, MS, RDN - HSN Team: if you wanna access the nutrients.
313
00:51:09.965 --> 00:51:13.285
Breta, MS, RDN - HSN Team: How we were looking at that on the desktop.
314
00:51:13.416 --> 00:51:24.326
Breta, MS, RDN - HSN Team: This top bar where you see it says consumed, burned and remaining you actually gonna just swipe to the right, and that will show you kind of the breakdown of your macronutrients right there.
315
00:51:24.706 --> 00:51:38.145
Breta, MS, RDN - HSN Team: Similarly, to how you do this on your computer if you want to see. Hey, where are my protein sources coming like, where's my protein coming from select protein? And it will give you a breakdown of those high or your main sources of protein
316
00:51:38.451 --> 00:51:55.275
Breta, MS, RDN - HSN Team: which I think is really nice to be able to see that cause again. You can use that to adjust your portion sizes. Same thing. If you were to have a saturated fat restriction, you can actually let's swipe over here you can see the additional nutrients. And I'm gonna swipe one more.
317
00:51:56.961 --> 00:51:57.926
Breta, MS, RDN - HSN Team: So
318
00:51:58.046 --> 00:52:07.346
Breta, MS, RDN - HSN Team: yeah, just a a great tool. You can definitely see how you stack up click into this. You can see each of the each of the micronutrients.
319
00:52:07.386 --> 00:52:25.046
Breta, MS, RDN - HSN Team: and it is easy enough just to swipe through that. But I don't think it's very the one thing I don't love is, I don't think it's very obvious that you have to swipe through it. If you want to see those extra like details. So keeping that in mind, and then same thing. So on the bottom toolbar, we're gonna click on foods.
320
00:52:25.206 --> 00:52:34.880
Breta, MS, RDN - HSN Team: This is where you can create your meals. Create your custom recipes. You can import those recipes can create different foods here. So there's a lot of
321
00:52:35.896 --> 00:52:52.076
Breta, MS, RDN - HSN Team: There's it has like the same functionality that the website does, it just presents in a little bit of a different way. And then when we hit the plus sign, this is how we can add foods to our diary. So you can select add food, which is where you can search, and
322
00:52:52.166 --> 00:53:05.485
Breta, MS, RDN - HSN Team: you can go to those favorites and all of those things will show up that we've already added to our favorites. You can see your custom items, and it will also give you what's common you can add in your supplements as well here.
323
00:53:05.778 --> 00:53:12.315
Breta, MS, RDN - HSN Team: Actually, I think that these are predetermined supplements. So if you scan in the bar code, it's gonna pull from here, I believe, but
324
00:53:13.066 --> 00:53:40.055
Breta, MS, RDN - HSN Team: I would maybe have to double check that and then we have different brands that you use a lot. These are brands that I use a lot. Not the craft range dressing. It's just as putting in a recipe for somebody. And then you can look at the different restaurant options that they have, and you can also select drinks. I think if you want to track your water chronometer just did an update on tracking fluid. So I will send you guys
325
00:53:40.056 --> 00:53:56.255
Breta, MS, RDN - HSN Team: a link to that article instead. But I just put in tap water here and do for like one cup. But there's all sorts of as a food. You can search different kinds of water in the foods. I'd like area, so you can click up here and search the drinks that you're looking for.
326
00:53:56.746 --> 00:54:04.865
Breta, MS, RDN - HSN Team: And then this Bar code button in the upper right hand corner I don't have. I don't. Yeah, I don't have a bar code near me, but
327
00:54:05.666 --> 00:54:12.695
Breta, MS, RDN - HSN Team: you're gonna allow camera access, and then you can scan the barcode and it will pull in the food
328
00:54:12.716 --> 00:54:19.245
Breta, MS, RDN - HSN Team: as long as it's in the database. Nancy, I see your hand raised. You can go ahead and jump on and let me know your question.
329
00:54:19.246 --> 00:54:44.196
nancy m: Yeah. Not a question. I just wanted to point out a couple of things that cause I've been using this for a long time, and to people that may want to think about using, it might seem like a whole lot of fuss and bother, but it doesn't take a long time to to get used to it. And there are just 2 things in addition to what you pointed out, that I wanted to mention that the database itself is kind of intelligent, I mean, sometimes you don't have to write
330
00:54:44.196 --> 00:54:51.495
nancy m: the whole thing like, if I were looking for canyon, bake house, gluten, free wheat, bread, heritage, style
331
00:54:51.496 --> 00:55:06.846
nancy m: if I type in, especially if I've used that thing like frequently in the last, you know, in the past, even if I don't have a favorite, even if I don't put it into a meal as but canyon heritage boom! There it is. It even remembers the last portion size I had.
332
00:55:07.036 --> 00:55:17.602
nancy m: and then the second thing that I use a lot in addition to the meals. And even if you don't use meals and favorites a lot, the multi select in the copy. The little
333
00:55:18.046 --> 00:55:39.931
nancy m: It's up in the up in the little right hand corner of the app. There's a multi select where you can just go to the previous day and say, Oh, yeah, this this is, you check off of like a dozen different things that you eat previous to and copy them to the the current day, or copy it from a few days back, whatever. So I find that really fast, fast way to do things.
334
00:55:40.216 --> 00:55:41.606
Al Kral: Yeah, whole meals.
335
00:55:43.346 --> 00:55:44.066
Breta, MS, RDN - HSN Team: Yeah.
336
00:55:44.349 --> 00:55:55.702
nancy m: Even if you don't copy the whole day you can. You can individually select with a little checkbox what you had the baby cause. Often you're eating leftovers, anyway. You have it in the house. That's what you're eating.
337
00:55:55.986 --> 00:56:09.256
Breta, MS, RDN - HSN Team: Yeah. And that's that brings up a really good point. Something I normally recommend is that you know, you take 30 min to an hour on a Sunday, or whenever you have a little bit of extra time and do some pre work, so go through your pantry.
338
00:56:09.276 --> 00:56:38.475
Breta, MS, RDN - HSN Team: scan in everything that you already regularly eat scan in the things that you know you have. So when you go to pick those things, they're already in chronometer for you. So it's super easy. Pull them from your favorites list. And that way you're not like, oh, I'm having you know. I'm having another Laura Bar gotta scan it in every single time. And then the other thing that you can do, and I think this will answer one of the questions in the chat. You can use this to like. I was adding foods into the future. So I was adding foods on the seventeenth.
339
00:56:38.476 --> 00:56:57.866
Breta, MS, RDN - HSN Team: If your meal planning or you want to use this to say like, okay, I know that this is how much I want to get in this day. Go ahead and pre put those things in for the whole week. And then you can actually just make little edits. It just totally depends on what how you like to do things as a person
340
00:56:58.237 --> 00:57:23.284
Breta, MS, RDN - HSN Team: like I. Personally, that would never work for me. But I do know some people are like really organized, and that would like work really well for them to put in like a whole week's worth of like, okay, I'm making. I'm doing my meal. Prep, so I have XY and Z. And I'm gonna eat those on this day, and then you can kinda like forecast that out, really, too, if you just wanna get a good idea of where you're at. You only need to track 3 to 5 days to look at those averages, and then you can start to use that as like
341
00:57:23.656 --> 00:57:39.055
Breta, MS, RDN - HSN Team: as information to help you make more specific choices. So you don't have to track every single thing every single day. If that's not what works for you. Track 3 to 5 days review, and then make those tweaks, and then maybe next month you track another 3 to 5 days.
342
00:57:39.542 --> 00:57:42.955
Breta, MS, RDN - HSN Team: Elizabeth, you can go ahead and jump on.
343
00:57:43.246 --> 00:57:57.076
iPhoneElizabeth: Okay, I was just gonna say something I find easy for me, cause I've been doing this for I don't know 8 months, whatever what I find easy is when I put everything and I usually eat in favorites. I only have to type in 3 letters. Boom! It pops up
344
00:57:57.376 --> 00:58:00.836
iPhoneElizabeth: because, cause I I try to track
345
00:58:02.046 --> 00:58:04.936
iPhoneElizabeth: 20 meals a week or 19 meals a week.
346
00:58:05.066 --> 00:58:13.255
iPhoneElizabeth: So it is as you said it is. It's tedious, but I found that you put it. Put everything you
347
00:58:13.426 --> 00:58:15.825
iPhoneElizabeth: eat a lot in favorites.
348
00:58:15.846 --> 00:58:19.026
iPhoneElizabeth: Type 3 letters in boom. It'll pop up.
349
00:58:19.026 --> 00:58:40.296
Breta, MS, RDN - HSN Team: Yeah. And I think it's help. It is like the a little bit of work, right? It is a little bit of work, but I think it has such better pay offs, because, instead of guessing, and like even in a nutrition session, you know, I can say, Hey, what do you eat. And you're like, Oh, well, I have an egg and I have toast. I have this, and I'm like great. It sounds good. But like.
350
00:58:40.296 --> 00:58:53.095
Breta, MS, RDN - HSN Team: is it actually meeting your specific nutrient goals versus if I have, you track it, and then I can see it. And then it's like awesome turns out you're, you know, 10 grams over your saturated fat every day, only on days you eat
351
00:58:53.096 --> 00:59:05.005
Breta, MS, RDN - HSN Team: breakfast from chick-fil-a so great. Let's just like make a little switch there, or let's find a different breakfast item at Chick-fil-a that will keep you under your Saturday. Fat goals like those are the things that we're looking for. Alan. Go ahead.
352
00:59:05.716 --> 00:59:08.695
Al Kral: I find a small digital scale invaluable.
353
00:59:09.426 --> 00:59:21.546
Al Kral: If you do everything weight in grams or whatever. And you just pick the food. I got 50 grams of this 100 grams of that you don't have to try to figure out serving sizes, this, that, or anything. It's just simple.
354
00:59:22.186 --> 00:59:46.079
Breta, MS, RDN - HSN Team: Awesome. Yeah, that's I. Yeah. If the the grams and just make sure you're changing that little button there, cause I think sometimes if you notice I don't know you're like, Oh, wow! That seems like it's really high or really low. Just go back and check the units that you put stuff in cause that can be a common issue. But no, I think a Gram skills awesome. And then question from the chat.
355
00:59:46.676 --> 01:00:10.096
Breta, MS, RDN - HSN Team: I just wanna touch on this. How is your information protected? I can't speak to how it's protected on their free version, but if you're a client of ours, we have it's called like a business agreement with chronometer that like extends hipaa compliance to their software. So yes, but on, if you're using the free version and accessing that, then you'll want to review their privacy policy on your own
356
01:00:11.706 --> 01:00:24.286
Breta, MS, RDN - HSN Team: awesome any more questions about chronometer. And I was kind of like a also deep dive, but also very fast. So and you'll you'll have access to this recording, too, so you can go back and check out any little things that you've been
357
01:00:24.566 --> 01:00:29.346
Al Kral: It's super easy. After a while. It ain't like even tedious or anything. It's just
358
01:00:29.366 --> 01:00:33.076
Al Kral: copy paste copy from yesterday to today, you know.
359
01:00:33.356 --> 01:00:33.946
Breta, MS, RDN - HSN Team: Yeah.
360
01:00:34.066 --> 01:00:43.425
Breta, MS, RDN - HSN Team: love it. I love it. And I love. I also, I love seeing people's chronometer data. It it seriously makes making nutrition changes so much easier.
361
01:00:45.596 --> 01:00:54.066
Sharon: So what's a good use of the time stamping for your meals is like if you're is it for time restricted feeding or.
362
01:00:54.066 --> 01:00:58.893
Breta, MS, RDN - HSN Team: Yeah, so chronometer actually does have some time restricted feeding
363
01:00:59.996 --> 01:01:11.656
Breta, MS, RDN - HSN Team: functionality. So you could actually set up different kinds of fast in kernel meter. But you don't have to enter the Times. It doesn't really matter to me, except
364
01:01:12.646 --> 01:01:37.586
Breta, MS, RDN - HSN Team: so an example might be like your snacks, and one thing we generally discourage is like grazing throughout the day. So say you're logging, you know, every single time you, you know. Stop by the kitchen and you pick up something and put it in your mouth. Seeing how frequently and at what times you are actually eating that can be really helpful, and why we would like generally discourage that that kind of grazing behavior is that's gonna keep
365
01:01:37.586 --> 01:01:42.945
Breta, MS, RDN - HSN Team: your insulin levels higher for longer, which is going to create a higher risk of insulin resistance.
366
01:01:42.946 --> 01:01:51.026
Breta, MS, RDN - HSN Team: So you know, things like that could be a really helpful tool. But you definitely don't have to add the timestamps. It's really person specific. And what data like.
367
01:01:51.256 --> 01:01:55.126
Breta, MS, RDN - HSN Team: what data do you need to make the best choices for yourself?
368
01:01:57.476 --> 01:02:07.256
Breta, MS, RDN - HSN Team: And I don't know about the requirement on the phone app for entering meal times. I might. I'll I'll play around with that, Diane, and kind of see if I can figure out a way around that
369
01:02:08.806 --> 01:02:10.199
Breta, MS, RDN - HSN Team: other questions.
370
01:02:10.896 --> 01:02:12.266
Candy Reichert: I had that question
371
01:02:12.866 --> 01:02:13.456
Candy Reichert: oop.
372
01:02:13.456 --> 01:02:14.555
Breta, MS, RDN - HSN Team: Jump on! Go ahead!
373
01:02:15.462 --> 01:02:23.915
Candy Reichert: I I just wanted a little bit of an explanation of what the energy is and how I mean it looks like a negative number. And it, you know. So what is that?
374
01:02:23.916 --> 01:02:37.073
Breta, MS, RDN - HSN Team: Yes, so energy in chronometer is code for calories. I touched on this a little bit, but I definitely like the reframing of calories as energy. Because we wanna make sure that you're getting enough. And calories typically come with a connotation of restriction.
375
01:02:37.366 --> 01:02:58.486
Breta, MS, RDN - HSN Team: So if we can focus on getting enough energy in versus like not getting too many calories. That's gonna be a win. But if you're seeing negatives on your calories, that is gonna probably have to do with what your exercise targets are, and if you're importing that data in there like I, we covered that like a little bit. But I will.
376
01:02:59.086 --> 01:03:11.715
Breta, MS, RDN - HSN Team: I'll try to send a screenshot of an example of what those negatives look like, and a couple of ways you can fix that. But generally, if we can get into either. If you're going over your target, it would say that you're in like a
377
01:03:12.186 --> 01:03:19.576
Breta, MS, RDN - HSN Team: you're in like a surplus, and if you're way under your target. It would say that you're in a deficit which that deficit would be negatives.
378
01:03:20.376 --> 01:03:38.595
Breta, MS, RDN - HSN Team: Awesome, Carrie said in the chat to remove the timestamp simply uncheck the orange check box next to the time. Love it. I I will admit I don't normally use chronometer on my phone. I'm normally on my desktop or on my laptop. So love the phone and mobile tips for everyone. So I do think that is probably the easiest way to use.
379
01:03:38.596 --> 01:03:42.605
Al Kral: That is small and tedious, trying to use the phone.
380
01:03:45.466 --> 01:03:47.845
Breta, MS, RDN - HSN Team: I bet hopefully, has some tips, though I know.
381
01:03:47.846 --> 01:03:48.336
Al Kral: That's it.
382
01:03:48.336 --> 01:03:53.215
Breta, MS, RDN - HSN Team: How much you have and where you're at during the day. I mean right? It's what whatever works. But.
383
01:03:53.216 --> 01:03:55.447
Al Kral: Yeah. Keep expanding everything to look at.
384
01:03:57.776 --> 01:03:58.956
Breta, MS, RDN - HSN Team: Awesome. It's.
385
01:03:59.546 --> 01:04:01.204
Sharon: It says that you could
386
01:04:02.276 --> 01:04:06.186
Sharon: migrate in information from a fitness device.
387
01:04:06.596 --> 01:04:07.635
Breta, MS, RDN - HSN Team: Yes. Is it.
388
01:04:07.636 --> 01:04:14.145
Sharon: Do all fitness devices? Are there any fitness, advice, devices? You recommend.
389
01:04:14.146 --> 01:04:17.216
Breta, MS, RDN - HSN Team: Yes, so chronometer integrates with
390
01:04:18.396 --> 01:04:20.546
Breta, MS, RDN - HSN Team: fitbit whoop
391
01:04:20.996 --> 01:04:26.526
Breta, MS, RDN - HSN Team: aura. So what we we generally recommend in our clinic is
392
01:04:26.576 --> 01:04:31.565
Breta, MS, RDN - HSN Team: the aura ring. So, and or a whoopstrap.
393
01:04:32.126 --> 01:04:56.495
Breta, MS, RDN - HSN Team: The choice of which one you want will depend on what your primary goal is. So they both kind of measure the same thing. But they present the data in a different way. So Aura is gonna be a really awesome sleep tracker. And it's gonna be that first and foremost. So if you're worried about getting enough sleep, really managing those stress levels, that is probably gonna be your primary choice. Now, the loop is, gonna be a little bit more geared towards exercise
394
01:04:56.998 --> 01:05:11.155
Breta, MS, RDN - HSN Team: and making sure that you're recovered enough so that way you're not over exercising and over expending yourself so you can but it also tracks your sleep, and it also everything on each of those is measured.
395
01:05:11.156 --> 01:05:34.796
Breta, MS, RDN - HSN Team: or like predominantly driven by heart rate, variability, or Hrv, and so it just depends on what you want. I will say the whoop trap, the whoop strap is significantly cheaper than an oral ring as well, which is gonna play a role. I've worn both. I prefer the loop, but I don't like the aura ring because I rock climb and it gets all scratched up. So that's just like a personal preference for me. And it does connect with apple watch. And there's some other
396
01:05:34.796 --> 01:05:40.586
Breta, MS, RDN - HSN Team: things I'll have to it also connects with some scales as well.
397
01:05:43.736 --> 01:05:45.675
Breta, MS, RDN - HSN Team: Garmin, I believe.
398
01:05:47.666 --> 01:06:01.406
Breta, MS, RDN - HSN Team: And if you just like, do a Google search on like the devices. But it looks like fit bit Garmin strava, the withing scale. Whoop, polar. If you have a dexcom
399
01:06:02.126 --> 01:06:09.806
Breta, MS, RDN - HSN Team: which is a continuous glucose monitor, it's not the one that we generally use, but technically, that is an option. And then key to Mojo as well.
400
01:06:14.046 --> 01:06:25.125
Breta, MS, RDN - HSN Team: But if you're importing that exercise, just remember to go into your targets and turn off the factoring that into changing your your energy targets to me. The more
401
01:06:25.166 --> 01:06:40.106
Breta, MS, RDN - HSN Team: movement you have in those numbers, the harder it's gonna feel to track because you're gonna feel like you're never, ever close to anything like moving targets. We don't want that. We don't want moving targets. We want clear, straightforward goals.
402
01:06:44.666 --> 01:06:45.806
Breta, MS, RDN - HSN Team: right?
403
01:06:45.836 --> 01:07:02.169
Breta, MS, RDN - HSN Team: Awesome. Well, if that is all the questions we have for today. This is great to see you guys. I hope you guys enjoyed. I hope you guys learned a little bit today and you found it helpful and we'll get the recording sent out and uploaded to health span nation which everybody.
404
01:07:02.466 --> 01:07:26.565
Breta, MS, RDN - HSN Team: everybody should have access on optimal human health.com. Now. You should have received an email this morning if you didn't get one on Monday. That your accounts been updated. There was like a little handful of people who ended up in a different bucket. And I think we got you guys all squared away today. So if you do have questions, though, we can always reach out to to Julie at Hsn. support@ohhmd.com.
405

406
01:07:37.356 --> 01:07:38.665
Sharon: I have one more question.
407
01:07:38.666 --> 01:07:39.475
Breta, MS, RDN - HSN Team: Yeah. Go ahead.
408
01:07:39.796 --> 01:07:51.856
Sharon: So like things like, whether it's the the adding your device in, or how you want to track something. If you toggle that on or off. Would that just really change it all?
409
01:07:52.006 --> 01:07:55.555
Sharon: But all your information back without it or with it?
410
01:07:56.006 --> 01:08:03.225
Breta, MS, RDN - HSN Team: Yes, I do believe it edits everything. Which is fine, because then you just turn it off, and it goes back to how it is. But, yeah.
411
01:08:03.826 --> 01:08:04.556
Breta, MS, RDN - HSN Team: okay.
412
01:08:10.096 --> 01:08:10.875
Sharon: Thank you.
413
01:08:11.076 --> 01:08:12.298
Breta, MS, RDN - HSN Team: Yeah, of course.
