What do your meals look like (show me pictures)....
Since the other thread got locked, I'm starting a new one.

Have meal type change automatically depending on the time of day.
Hello! One thing I was thinking would really help speed up the process of adding food would be that the meal type (breakfast, lunch, dinner, snack) would change based on the time of day. I do know it’s easy to change, but it would be the cherry on the cake for a feature like that to be implemented. Maybe the users can set…

How do you stay on plan when you travel?
I travel frequently for both work and fun. I'm finding better ways to manage exercise and eating but am always looking for advice or best practices from others. What are ways that help you stay on plan when you travel? And do you track food while on the road? A few of mine: - Find Hotel near running trail or close to my…

Scan nutrition labels
It would be nice if the app let you scan nutrition labels. Some foods, and pre-made meals do not have a barcode, but they all have nutrition labels. The app should be able to read those labels.

Hi everyone
Hi there I’m new to MFP and am trying to lose weight. I’ve just been diagnosed with Type 2 Diabetes and high cholesterol. I’ve been overweight for a good few years and have always wanted to lose weight but the more I wanted to lose it, the more I actually put on!!! It’s amazing how hearing that you’re Type 2 Diabetic from…

Not New… but returning ♥️
Well it’s been more than a hot minute since I tracked every morsel that went in to my mouth… and at my fittest and healthiest when I last embarked on a weight loss journey I was 5stone lighter than I am currently. Sadly life and the horrible events my partner and I have endured has caused my weight to spiral. Since I have…

My basal metabolic rate is 1238. My workout burns approx 400 calories. Will I lose weight?
On a 1900 calorie diet? When I adjust my protein fat and carbs goal myfitnesspal tells me to eat 1900 calories. With my exercise burn it's gone up to about 2300 calories. Will I still lose weight with this deficit?
-
Should I worry about a plant fat heavy diet?
Fatty foods are the only foods that really satiate me. I used to eat a lot of garbage, but over the past year, I've switched to mostly plant-based, unsaturated fats (nuts, peanut butter, avocados, high-quality olive oil, etc.). I eat a moderate amount of cheese and eggs (maybe every other day?) and meat when I can afford…

Trying again
Turning 50 this year and need to do something about all this extra weight. I have a hard time tracking consistently - I know all the things I should be doing but actually doing them consistently is hard. I hate when I go to doctor and it says "obese" on the form. I know I eat when stressed and eat when sad and eat when…

How many calories should I be eating
Hi, I’m 29 and weigh 211. I’m curious to get other opinions, MyFitnessPal app says I should be eating 1450 calories a day. Do you think that’s low or should I be eating a little bit more? I tried to Google more about calorie counting, it gets confusing

Once lost 15 kg, now I'm back for more
I lost 15 kg by counting calories but thyroidism had ruined everything before I realized! Now I want to lose 20 kg or so in a reasonable amount of time, say a year. Already lost 5 kg in 30 days on the app but looking for more until I hit my best weight!

Feed and friends!
Hi all - long time MFP user without anyone to cheer for and my newsfeed is pretty boring. 39/M trying to get rid of the dad bod once and for all, lifting weights, living my best life. I'd love to have my friends feed full and lively. Give me a friend request if interested!

Calorie/macro counting
Hiiii everyone!! This might be a useless question but while logging should I log ground chia and ground flax that I’m putting in my morning water? I have issues with regularity :/ (sorry too much info) hence using this now to see if will work! Point is lol should I log this I’m not taking the full amount of 2 tbps spoons…

Not able to loose weight ?
"Despite exercising daily for an hour, adopting intermittent fasting for the past three days, and maintaining a balanced diet with occasional homemade junk food, my weight remains unchanged at 69.70 kilograms. Any insights into why I'm not seeing any weight loss progress?"

Coming back to weight loss, need friends for tough talk and support.
Hi I lost over 5 stone about 3 years ago using a rival food logging app (take a guess which one) but let myself slip massively and put back on 6.5 stone since then, i made an active decision to start losing weight and get fitter after being barely able to walk due to altitude and lack of fitness on a recent ski holiday, so…

How do I make the calories goal stop being adjusted?
I noticed with any physical activity I do that causes me to burn calories, my calorie goal always increases allowing me to eat more calories. How I do stop this from changing? For example I only want to eat 1,500 calories a day but when I burn calories my app jumps to a 1,700 calorie goal just because I have that extra…

Weight loss progress not updating?
So I’ve been on plan a week… in a healthy deficit all week and as a result I’ve lost 2kgs in my first week - you best believe I logged that drop so quick I almost tripped up running to the app. I added it feeling proud! When I nipped on later to log food I notice that my newsfeed updated the change for my friends to see…

For weight loss, do you eat back the calories you've burned?
I've heard mixed answers before and was wondering what the general consensus is.

Record for Signing In??????
Way back in December 2012, our youngest son had a major surgery at Mayo Clinic, Rochester. On the way home he commented that he would like to see both my wife and me live a lot longer by losing some weight and for my wife to quit smoking (She did a year ago in March). He gave me the link to myfitnesspal and suggested I try…

I’m feeling more confident when logging food but I generally have questions that relate to nutritional info on foods pre & post cooking. Like today, I’m cooking a Shoulder of Pork by roasting…

57 year old female, struggling here to regain pre menopause self.
Interesting how easily weight creeps up on you! I had made a decision to lose weight and now a week later I'm up 2kg. Clothes are getting tighter and motivation is waning. I am 57 years old and feel frail, stiff, sore all over and have achy joints. I don't wish to continue on like this. Today I will reset! 1. Track daily-…
