No longer able to change calorie goals
I've been using MyFitnessPal for years. Recently after finishing cutting I wanted to set my calories up and I noticed I can't. It always resets to what app calculates. I want to change from what it calculates and change percentages for cargs, proteins and fats. Is this now only allowed in payed version? I use free on.

Looking for accountability partners
I’m 53 years old. Started this over when I saw I hit 340 lbs. I wasn’t really tracking or anything until I hit about 332. Then decided to track and go on a real diet. I’m doing GOLO meal plans. In 2 months I went from 332 to 300. So, overall, down 40, and 32 from when I started actually dieting. Would love to make some…

Remove streak interstitial
Every day when I log my first food, I am interrupted by an annoying full screen interstitial that tells me "you're on fire" or something useless along those lines. Then I have to tap somewhere to make it go away and continue using the app. Is there a way to disable this? I think that the name of the feature is "streak". I…

App goal for protein
the app has stated my protein goal as way higher than the ‘standard’ maintanence calc - it seems to be calculated at the weight-gain max (@2.2g/kg body weight) - originally I told it I want to gain weight, which makes sense for the goal it chose, but then I changed it to my current weight, and it hasn’t altered the protein…

Calorie limit going down, why?
Okay I, finally, managed to get my Garmin to connect and log my (very limited steps), and now I have FEWER calories on a daily basis, and each day the number it is reducing it by is going up leaving me with even less to play with (started by removing 17, then 33, now up to 83 fewer calories!). Does anyone have any idea why?

Question about logging Calcium
Hello! I’m a long-time user, but always tracked just calories. I’m 64 years old, and was diagnosed with osteopenia, so I’m starting to track macros and calcium.
