@kathleen1314 Good morning, Kathleen, and everyone else on this site!
I just started using Cronometer (or, at least I'm trying to!) and I find it very difficult to work with compared to MyFitnessPal.
I'm trying to add recipes that I prepare myself and consume frequently, but it seems like that app only wants to record in grams instead of ounces. For instance: I want to record half a pound of spinach in one recipe, and I have to first figure out how many grams that is.
Do you have this problem with Cronometer? (I have the unpaid version.)
Also, I'm taking the Strontium first thing in the morning because it seems to keep me up when I take it at night. I think it bothers my stomach and that leads to a stuffy nose. I have terrible insomnia, so lots of things keep me awake.
In any case, do you think it's okay to take Strontium in the morning? I generally don't eat for a few hours afterwards.
Wishing you a lovely day!

I am sorry that you are having problems with cronometer. If myfitnesspal works better for you and can measure everything which you need then I would continue with it.
I admit that with my recipes, I just guess the closest amounts etc and input them.
We usually take strontium the last thing at night just to keep it away from all calcium. Some users do take it in the morning and then load up on their calcium the rest of the day. Usually 2 to 3 hours is enough to allow the body to absorb the strontium, and there is some discussion if even that is needed since someone thinks they may have discovered a receptor just for strontium.
So yes, just try to not take calcium for a few hours in case the body ignores the strontium and just absorbs the calcium.
