Imported recipe doesn't match website's nutrition info
I've imported recipes by pasting the URL, and MFP has calorie counts and nutritional info that is way off (much higher) than the nutritional facts on the website I imported from. I've checked that number of servings is the same and ingredients/quantities are as well matched as possible. Seems odd that it could be so far…

Recommendation to stick to a high protein, low fat diet
I'm having trouble meeting the necessary protein intake without getting in fat alongside. I've been trying to get pantry products that advertise that they are high in protein, but fail to mention they are even higher in fat. Any staple foods would be appreciated.

Pickles in brine
I have been making fresh cucumber salad. I pour a high calorie sweet brine over the cucumber, but then discard most of it after taking the cucumbers out. How can I account for a fairly accurate amount eaten?

Setting calories for post partum belly fat loss/skinny fat/body recomp?
I'm 6 months postpartum, 5'8", 133 lbs. I've always been (and still am) skinnyfat. My goal is to shrink my waist/belly (it's ~5" bigger than pre-pregnancy), but to gain (or at least not lose) any muscle. I don't care about "losing weight" since 133lbs, although 10lbs greater than pre-pregnancy, is fine for my height. I…

Net Carbs Not Calculated Correctly in Android App
I am a premium member and I rely on this app to calculate Net Carbs correctly. The problem is (confirmed by Myfitnesspal support) . The formula for <b>Net Carbs = Total Carbs - (Fiber + Sugar Alcohols) </b>. The android app <b> does not </b> subtract sugar alcohols, which totally skews my macro calculations. How can I be…

Smart Balance Original buttery spread.
The new calorie count for this item is 50 cal, down from 80 cal. I saw that 50 cal was/is the cal count for the light version. I was only able on a short search to find a 60 cal version. Is there no other way to announce this to members or edit updated information? Brass

The whole container has less than 10g of carbs, less than 1g of fat and 15 grams of protein. Tastes amazing and due to it being all water and…

Costco Popcorn vs Big Mac
The label on a bag of Costco Popcorn (and most popcorn for that matter) is confusing... at first. Let's break it down... First, it says "Serving size 2 tbsp unpoped). Next, it says "Servings per bag about 2.5". For Calories, it says "190 for 2 tbsp (unpopped)". So, unpopped, the entire bag has about 190 x 2.5 or 475…
