Weekly limits instead of daily? Topic

Jrwelchnh 01/06/23
I'd like to set limits on my alcohol intake for the week instead of by the day - is there a way to do that in MyNetDiary? For example, I know 1 drink a day is "moderate" drinking, but it seems ridiculous if I don't drink for 6 days and on 1 day I have 2 beers and am over my "limit"... but if I set a 2 drink limit daily I'm drinking too much and never over the limit.

My naturopath did say it’s healthier to drink on weekend but leave the week for liver to have a break…so there are other benefits

Hi there Jrwelchnh-
Excellent question! I have reached out to our support team to see about a workaround. Stay tuned!
-I agree with you that a weekly alcohol target in addition to a daily target would be helpful.

Have a good day! Joanna (MyNetDiary Dietitian)

How do you set an alcohol limit?? I’m doing “damp” January where I’m only drinking on the weekend IF there is a social event. 🙌🏼🙌🏼🙌🏼

Hello Jrwelchnh, U1194088325 and JMF32,

Sorry about the trouble, and thank you for reaching out.

Currently, MyNetDiary has only a "Daily" Limit Value to set an Alcohol Intake cap. And I do not have any workarounds for your case. Sorry. (Creating the custom tracker via the "Trackers" section or capturing this information in the Notes or Comments will not help.) But thanks for bringing this up! I'll pass your request to our developers to see if we can add its "Weekly" option.

Please bear with us.

Sincerely,
Dmitry S.
