My experience with the KoBo Toolbox App

Hello together,

I would like to share my experience with you, which I made within a week with the KoBo Toolbox food app.
I think the app is very simple and doesn't have too many fields to fill out, which some might find annoying.
My biggest difficulty was to remember to take a picture before each meal and enter the data accordingly. Often I only thought about it after I had eaten. A reminder on my smartphone would have helped me.
I am looking forward to the results.

How much energy is in my meal?

Our task was to take a closer look at a daily meal and to show the following three units of measurement: kcal, kJ and kWh.


On weekends I like to go out for breakfast.
So I took this as an example.

croissants: 171 kcal / 715.464 kJ / 0.19874 kWh

1/2 baguette: 149 kcal / 623.416 kJ / 0.1731711111 kWh

50g jam: 72 kcal / 301.248 kJ / 0.08368 kWh

3dl orange juice: 135 kcal / 564.84 kJ / 0.1569 kWh

 

For my calculations from kcal into kJ and kWh I used this online calculator, which is quite good in my opinion.
