- The login screen confused him; he didn't know what the options meant or if he needed to do anything special here
- He was extremely confused by the home page
- “I'm not sure what this is for” (pointing to the Meal Log)
- He wanted to enter the food items from his shopping trip into the meal log because it was larger
- Then he was confused as to where to enter his meals
- “I'm not sure if Spaghetti and Meatballs are one item”
- He started putting them as one item, and then changed his mind
- Then he wasn't sure about the cost, and entered half of the total cost under each item
- He spent a significant amount of time deciding if it was one or two items
- He didn't know what food group to label each item as
- He left some of the optional “food groups” sections blank
- Found the meal log okay
- When he went to enter a meal on this page, his first instinct was to press the “breakfast” label on the left to enter breakfast, instead of the “Add Meal” page
- Found everything “a little complicated”
User 3
- Wondered what selection to make on the login screen.
- Observed that the home page was "busy." Spent a moment taking it in.
- Navigated the Food List all right, adding groceries to the list.
- When entering a meal, clicked on "what's this?" to see what the "template" was for. Thought this would be a useful feature.
- Though self couldn't accurately estimate the number of calories in food.
- On the Meal Log page, wondered how the time for a meal on the calendar was determined, since that was not an input when entering a meal on the Home Page.
- This shouldn't be the time of entry, because people may not enter a meal right after eating it.
- On the Analytics page, wondered how "week/month/year" buttons would reflect changes depending on the actual date selection, especially for date ranges that fall in the middle of those labels.
- On the Analytics page, thought there were too many drop-down options.

- On the food item entry screen, “There are a lot of boxes to push”
- After finishing entering the item, “How do I get out?”
- Commented that a “today” button would be very useful for date fields on the meal log (and elsewhere)
- Typed in the text “Don't know” for the cost of peanut butter
- Guessed something for all of the other fields he didn't know
- saved his breakfast as a template
- When asked to view the meals he's eaten recently, he said “Not sure whether to go to 'View Meals' or 'Analytics'.”
- After going to “View Meals”, he said “That makes sense now”
- He understood the labels/filters on the calendar for the meal log
- He had trouble finding the analytics tab at the top of the meal log from this page
- He suggested that we have greater parallels between pages. As it is, the user needs to learn a new interface for every tab (on the navigation bar)
- He commented that data entry was less straightforward than the rest of the site
- He mentioned that the fact that some fields weren't required wasn't obvious (he thought all fields were required)
User 3
- She didn't have any trouble with the meal log
- Wondered aloud “How do I close the grocery list?”
- Also, “What is the template?” and clicked on the hyperlink
- This user found the analytics page intuitive and was quickly able to get to everything
- She was a little confused by the graph that displayed information by food group
- Asked about aggregate statistics
