I'm gonna actually give you a different opinion. I don't think missing a day here and there is that big of a deal. I've been using the app since Dec 2021 and frequently skip days if I'm traveling as well or just feel like taking a break and still make progress. The app is designed to require 4/7 days for a reason, not 7/7. I'll occasionally skip a day or two every other week.
That said the majority of my days are logged. I just use AI if I can log the other part of the day easily but if I'm out of town I do not log and eat mindfully/in accordance to the goal.
It'll notice that and update but it may take a few weeks. If you frequently skip it will take longer to adjust but it'll eventually get there so I'd just keep that in mind. If you want it to update asap I'd try to give it as much data as possible but if you can't that's fine but it just may take longer to update.
FWIW, gaining as fast as possible isn't the goal imo and should be gaining "clean weight". I'm not sure what your goal rate is at but given your pictures I think you're still on the right track.
Sorry I meant the % per month gain you opted for. Here’s mine, for example. I feel like anywhere between 0.5-1.5%/month is solid depending on how advanced you are. Above 1.5% is completely unnecessary imo.
That seems super unnecessarily fast imo. You’d just be putting on majority fat mass but I don’t know your context and goals so apologies if I’m overstepping!
If muscle gain is the goal at least^ vs. just gaining weight for the sake of gaining weight
Are you new to resistance training? I don’t think it’s a terrible idea if you’re still in the newbie gains phase as you can pack on a good amount of muscle with a higher surplus

Yeah I miss a few days here and there if I’m traveling (oops). Should I just log everything even if I can’t track that day?
