New release comments
Hi. I just started using MyFitnessPal again and I hate the new changes! I have an iPhone and can’t see the whole serving size in the screen when I go to adjust my serving size once I select my food. Also I never used to get messages that it cannot find the food associated with the barcode but now I get it all the time! For…

Logging accuracy, consistency, and you're probably eating more than you think.
For most of my online clients, when fat loss stalls the first thing I will tend to examine are logging habits for consistency and accuracy. It's pretty common for people to under-report food intake and there's multiple pieces of research demonstrating that. Speaking from my experiences dieting, back when I was tracking…

Weight Gain Caused by Doxycycline
I was put on doxycycline by my dermatologist in November of last year and I ended up gaining about 20 pounds because of it. I stopped usage in January and I haven't lost any of the weight. I admittedly haven't been eating and exercising as well as I should have, but I have been very careful about my eating and I am doing…

High blood pressure
Came from the dr. and now I have to check my blood pressure 3 to 4 times a week. Even though I have a long way to go to my weight loss goal. I Really could use all the encouragement that I could get right now.

Can’t seem to do it
Hey everyone, So I am new to this and I’m gonna start by giving you a bit of a background. I am a mid thirties female that is depressed and suffers from many mental health issues. I am a bit of an agoraphobic so getting outside and getting active is a struggle for me. It’s also a struggle because I gained over 100 lbs in 2…

Lost motivation and healthy eating habits
In 2018 my highest weight was 225. I got tired of the way I looked and decided to do something about it. It seems that my body takes forever to lose weight. In November of 2019 I started trying extra hard to lose weight. At that point I weighed 197. In mid July of 2020 I had managed to lose 35lbs and was down to 161 lbs…

Frustrated and researched out!
Hi, I'm not new to MFP but first time posting. Since January of this year I've been tracking consistently with food. I wear a Garmin which tracks my daily calorie burn at 2,000 a day usually. I walk 5 days a week for 30 minutes (2x15 minutes a day). On top of that I usually do 3-4 workouts which are made up of strength…

How long does DOMS water weight last?? Even if no longer sore?
Hi All, I'm a runner who was out of commission for a couple weeks after I strained my back. I got back into running two weeks ago and was so sore the next day even though it was just a couple miles that first day back. So as expected my weight went up by three lbs that next day from DOMS water weight. Now my question is,…

First time struggling to lose weight. How can I change from what worked in the past
I'm at a point right now where I'm the heaviest and least in shape I've ever been. I've always been very active and in shape until 3 years ago when diagnosed with a chronic illness. This has prevented me from being as active and any workouts I have tried my body just shuts down for the next week. So im at the point where I…

Where to get information on Nutrition
Hi All, I have used MFP off and on for quite a few years and have learned a lot but not really put it into practice. However I have recently realized that that when ever I get serious about WL And start counting calories I tend to fall in the same pattern where I try to eat as little as possible and keep the calories as…

Time to see a decrease of belly fat
Hello everyone. So after some months of bulking and 3 months of maintenance during 2 strength mesocycles, i have started my first cut. After 7 weeks of cutting i lost about 3 kg. I don't feel any side effects or hunger. I always had much more problems eating at TDEE or bulking than cutting. I think however that my belly…

The New Dashboard is a nice change BUT a huge trade off
For $79.00/ year I would expect when new features are added to the app they would enhance the user experience. I have been using My fitness Pal since 2013! Loved that I could do a workout, record it with Apple Watch and have calories added to my daily total. Since the new dashboard Apple Health Kit and My Fittness Pal are…

short term goals
Is it a realistic goal to shoot for a 10 pound loss by mid August. It is nearing the end of June now with minor set backs I was able to accomplish my first goal but I didn't feel like I did much outside of walking and counting calories daily so I kind of want to use the next few weeks to really push myself. I also just…

*Body Fat photo eval* Styku says 30.7%!!!! Beyond bummed!!!!
30.7% body fat!! I am 5'3" weigh 135 and am fairly toned, other than some extra weight I carry in my legs and hips. I really did not at all think I was at 30 %!!! Is that accurate? Thoughts?? An inbody scan a year ago pegged me at 15% which I think was also inaccurate. Does it even matter?!!?

Hi. Long story short - lost about 30 pounds from 2/20-summer 2021 (142-112). Gained 15 back from fall to now - 127.8.

Don’t plan on…
