  • Answers to common questions
    Q: Do my Twitter followers have to see what I eat?
    A: No. If you don't want all your followers seeing what you ate, just send us a direct message using: d fc8
    Example:
    d fc8 2 cups orange juice
    Q: Am I able to send Diet Tweets for food I ate on days other than today?
    A: Yes. You can date food by typing the following after the @fc8 or d fc8 and before the meal: ysd (code for “yesterday”) OR type the date (MM/DD/YYYY). If you ate the food today there is no need to type anything additional.
    Examples:
    d fc8 ysd br 2 whole wheat waffles; 1 tbsp maple syrup
    d fc8 08/22/2009 ln Subway 6 inch turkey sub; 2 oz. Doritos
    Q: Am I able to send multiple foods in the same Twitter message?
    A: Yes. Simply separate the foods with a semi-colon (;).

    Q: Am I able to designate a meal with my Diet Tweets?
    A: Yes. Simply type the appropriate meal code before the foods you ate, but after the date, if applicable.
    The meal codes are as follows: br=breakfast; ln=lunch; dn=dinner.
    Example:

    Q: If I don’t enter a meal code what meal will my food go into?
