Metric units

acvnumberone · 05-19-2010, 11:43 AM

Hi,
I've noticed, it is possible to choose your favorite measure units and I chose metric (meters, kilograms), but in the reports (e.g. weight report), the units remain imperial (lbs, inches).
Does anybody know how to switch all the charts into metric units?

Thanks

The food imput section is also missing milliliters. It is rather frustrating to constantly have to convert things to fl oz when other metric options are available.

I am using Fitday and like it but doesn't give a place for fiber or I haven't found it. Just started so new to all this.
Thanks

Metric units would be good. I know the US uses Imperial (one of only three countries in the WORLD not to have adopted the metric system), but you must know there are other countries out there!

Same with the dates - how about an international date displayed dd mmm yyyy rather than the US-only mm-dd-yyyy.

Anyway, i've tried it - nice site, but I really can't be arsed to convert everything to floz and cups and skillets or whatever you use.

Methinks you speak with forked tongue!

Grams and kilograms are not Metric?? You've obviously MISSED this as an option when adding foods. But thanks for logging into the Forums just to complain, erroneously!

I do apologise. Can you walk me through how to enter 200ml of, say, milk? Or half a litre of beer? Or, for that matter, a UK fl.oz, or pint?

I did look, but obviously I missed the option to enter these units.

Fluid units are a different matter for some reason. For that, you'll have to use a conversion calculator http://www.convertunits.com/from/ml/to/ounce+[US,+liquid]

Problem solved.
