Who is seeing that the nutrition info for scanned food is inaccurate most of the time?
It seems to have gotten worse this year.

Can't get enough fat
I know this is odd: How do I eat more fat. My diet suggests I need more fat and carbs but not more protein. I don't want to eat butter or candy bars to get more fat, because I still need to look for more healthy carbs. And so many healthy carbs come with more protein, which I don't need. Cottage cheese might work, but I…

Micronutrients Tracking
(1) I've recently had surgery and need to track specific micronutrients but some of the nutrients in this app are based on % of DV (Daily Value). Are these DVs listed anywhere on the site? Is there any way to change that DV% field to specific amounts such as gram (g) or milligram (mg)? (2) Also, I have a handful of these…

Blendjet, like it? Hate it? Worth it?
I love the idea of a portable blender that is easy to clean, but at 40 bucks I'm pretty hesitant! I don't "need" a blender, but I feel like it would mix protein and MRP shakes better, and give me a few more options to add mixins like fruit or veggies. The ninja products are pretty good in general, but it's bigger, takes up…

Pickle - zero calories?
Today I had a pre-packaged pickle in a plastic bag from 7-11. It's called Van Holten's dill pickle. Why am I not convinced this was ZERO CALORIES? I mean cucumbers are not zero calories. And what about the vinegar or whatever is used to make pickles into pickles. Then I definitely tasted some saltiness in the pickle. I…

Mortons Baked Potato
I was looking at the Mortons steakhouse and noticed that their "fully loaded baked potato" has 1430 calories. Whoa. Just, whoa. If the potato is 1lb, then that's 350 calories. They somehow found a way to use 1100 calories worth of toppings? If I asked for no toppings, could I just log 350 calories? Thanks.

Under calories...
Ok so I'm only on day five of this but so far every day Ive come in way under calories.. if it's not gonna affect anything then I don't care but I'm afraid that my body will slow my metabolism down to a point I will stop progress soon. For a little context I have a very crazy schedule! I wake up at 3pm to get ready for…

Vitamin question
Probably a silly question but if one is taking a multivitamin is there a need for extra, such as V D or B 12 or Biotin, etc.? I just started taking Centrum Silver; it states 100% of some of the vitamins I've been taking separately; one of them is even 1000%. Sounds like overkill to me? Thanks!

Calorie Info Confusing!!!
Hello! So I’ve been eating these couscous sachets from Twistd for lunch a lot but the nutrition info on the packet doesn’t make sense to me and thought somebody might be able to help! So each packet is 100g dry and it asks for you to add 160ml boiling water. It says that each serving is 130g and that the packet contains 2…

Nutrition & Potassium
I noticed not all my foods are recording the potassium or magneisum levels. I never seem to meet the 3,500 required daily amount and I go over my calories when I try to eat the foods containing potassium. Why is my fitness Pal not recording potassium in foods correctly?

Protein on a Cut

Is Variety the Spice of Life?
I'm the type of person who doesn't mind eating the same breakfast and lunch most days, and having different various meals for dinner. Honestly, I probably wouldn't even mind the same dinner most days, if it was something I really liked. I only mix things up to make sure I'm getting all the nutrients I need, and to keep…

Is there a way to change dietary requirements?
Hello! I need to follow a mix of the GERD low acid diet and the Mediterranean diet. The basic fat, protein, etc levels my dietician wants me to meet each day are a little different than what is automatically tracked in MyFitnessPal. Is there a way to adjust those targets? Thank you. Best wishes

High protein, low carb/fat foods for vegetarians and vegans
I'm having a hard time finding vegetarian/vegan foods that are high in protein without also being high in carbs or fats. I'm trying to do a "recomposition" diet, meaning I want to get about 70 g of daily protein on a 1,300-1,400 cal diet, and I'm not seeing a way to do that without relying too much on protein powders. I'm…

I have hit my protein goal, have gone over slightly, this was the main focus. However, I have 141g of Carbs left, 12g of fat left with…

Cheaper alternatives to Nutrisystem?
Hello! I am looking into meal kits that can provide decent easy-to-make (read: microwaveable) meals that I can take to and from work and have a good amount of nutrition in them. One of my family members is a member of Jenny Craig, but they got in when they had a one time-payment for a lifetime membership, so he lucks out…

Custom grams in food
Hi, When scanning barcodes, in particular marinated raw chicken, it shows the wrong grams. It shows as 100g when in fact its 275g. Even if I select two servings, it's still missing 75g. Just wondering is there any suggestions? I have a possible one where there is an option to select 1g and then make the servings 275 but…
