Ever wondered what the "Include Today" toggle on the Carbon Diet Coach app does? The "Include Today" toggle is designed to offer flexibility in how your weekly compliance is viewed, especially once you progress past the initial five days of tracking in your week.

What is the importance of day five?

Once you reach day five of your check-in period, you have the flexibility to check in on any following day.

Note: No check-in is available prior to the fifth day of your check-in period, as users are only able to check-in up to two days prior to their regularly scheduled check-in day.

How is the toggle useful?

The Include Today toggle can help keep you on track toward meeting your weekly calorie targets, on average. If you were hoping to check-in early but find that days 1-5 show you noncompliant, you can stay within your week and utilize the Calorie Planner to make adjustments to ensure you're within your targets by the following day, or your regularly scheduled check-in date.


​Do I need to have Include Today on at check-in?

Nope! Since your check-in is reviewing the previous days, it will not include your current day's calories and macros in your check-in review.
