Desert Survivalist?

So i recently started busting through achievments and i found this one. However, i cant seem to track it or know if its progressing since in my Pipboy its just blank, not a number or anything just blank. So i was wondering if its only food on hardcore (which i havent started yet) or i encountered a bug or if its usual it happens.

What do you mean your pipboy is blank? Could you post a screenshot example?
And it's not only for hardcore. To look at your status on this achievement, click the Stats button, then general, then you should see your reputation. In the right corner, it should say "general", click on this, then scroll down till you see something like "health recoved from eating", and it should show you a number beside it.

Yes i know where to look, hoping the link will do

That's odd. Seems like a bug, then.

It could be a display bug or the game isn't tracking it correctly.
You could find out if the game is actually tracking it using this console command...

GetPCMiscStat "health from food"
(it isn't case sensitive, so all lower case is fine too)

It should show how many points you have.
If it doesn't show a valid number you could modify it with this command...

ModPCMiscStat "health from food" 0
(this should set the points to 0, but you could check again using the first command)
(Edit: replace 0 with another value, as it actually modifies your points by that value so 0 was in fact doing nothing, oops)

Try injuring yourself then eating some food, then try the first command again to check if it's being tracked properly this time.

This probably makes more sense to you then it does to me, however it seems to be "increasing" when im eating some, cant be right that its minus

From the pic it would appear that ModPCMiscStat "health from food" 0 didn't actually work,
maybe it needs a positive or negative number, so try it again using something like...

ModPCMiscStat "health from food" 470 (or -470)

As long as you can get it back to a positive number you should be able to get the stats showing in the pipboy again.

Also remember that using the console disables achievements for that session.

Thanks for your help regarding GetPCMiscStat "health from food", i ended up eating more food to getting it to increase which seemed to do the trick, it now shows in my pipboy as a positive value. No idea why it was -"number" in the first place, oh well
