Carb counter
Hi is there a way I can change my daily carbs - I am on a specific diet which only allows 60 carbs a day - so it's distracting to keep hearing I have so many left lol - can't figure out how to individualize this program thank you

How many calories in whale blubber?

18 years young, B.E.D. , Time to lose weight the healthy way!
Hello! I'm 18 years old and have been on here for a few months. My binge eating disorder has been getting in the way of me losing weight, but hopefully I will be in an ed clinic soon that will help me with it! For now, I'll try to control what I eat, but not too extreme so I binge. I need some support! 5'2 170ish? I'm not…

Calories allowed only 1060?!?!?!?
I know this cannot be right. My profile has me set up to consume 1450 calories per day before exercise. MFP is telling me I'm only allowed 1060 and then it's doing something weird with exercise and only allowing me a net of 921 calories. I'm not a newbie, I'm a return - and I know that even 1200 calories a day is not…

Third Time's A Charm
Don't ask about the other two times, they are in the past; I'm moving forward. Join me on my getting in shape adventure. I will not be held down by the number on the scale nor the number on the tag of my jeans. I'm getting in shape because I have an irrational fear of having to out run zombies, an obsession with cookies…

Need strict friends for support and motivation :)
Hi! I want to admit something! Today is my birthday and I am very ashamed of myself. I can not stick to a diet, I just overeat. Really, I know nobody can help me, I am the one that should put the fork down and find motivation to stick to a goal. But I thought this is why such groups and communities exist-to help people…

Question about step counters, can anyone help???
I was wondering on what y'all opinions are on the reliability of the step counter (motion censer dodad) built into the iPhone 6??? Because that's all I am currently using. I am thinking about saving up for a Fitbit (and it's awesome that it'll sync MFP) but if the iPhone is reliable then I can put that off for a but.…

Withings Smart Body Analyzer setup
I'm having problems getting my weight from the Withings Scale to MFP. I have linked the accounts and I see the connections both within the MFP and Withings portals. However the weight that is being recorded on Withings never gets to MFP. I tried to delete the weight entry that I made manually but MFP doesn't allow a blank…

Wrapping your head around "net" calories
I previously used another site. I remember logging both intake and exercise (estimated, no FitBit or whatever, don't plan on getting one). I don't remember the 'net' number looming so large on that other site, and this is preferable to MFP's way imo - focusing just the gross number made intake feel somehow easier to…

Are you on a diet or change of lifestyle?
I see a lot of people on here and they are on this diet or doing this to lose weight. I wonder though. Are you willing to do this for the rest of your life? When you are done with the diet or you hit your weight, will you go back to what you did before? You say no now but..... I was one of you, I did atkins and lost 100…

Anyone have experience with any zero to no calorie vegetables? I…

MFP, FitBit, and calorie credits for exercise
Hi all. I'm actually not new -- I've been using MFP in conjunction with FitBit for about five months now -- but I'm trying to understand the algorithm by which MFP converts exercise information from FitBit into calorie "credits." I just happened to notice these recent data points today, and they're making me wonder: 12/2 -…
