I know a number of MFP members who have recently gotten a Garmin fitness tracker and who have expressed an interest in Garmin's challenges.

Why can I never find the start fast button?
Sometimes when I complete my diary for the day the "start fast" button shows at the top of food log page. Sometimes it does not? Why? There should be an intermittent fasting section where you can stop & start. The only section I find is if you want to record a fast you have completed. Not user friendly. I'm getting an IF…

My Fitness Journey: Daily Check-Ins
I’ve been so inspired by people on here holding themselves accountable, so shoutout to 54shadesofblue and mikeyrowlands—seeing your posts made me want to start holding myself accountable in the same way.

Glp-1 weight loss
I just signed up for Wegovy and a program though my work/insurance. Getting my bloodwork on Monday, meeting with the doctor on Tuesday, getting setup with a counselor and starting classes. I'm excited and have been reading everything I can about it. Does anyone have tips from those who have tried a Glp?

Meals do not show individual foods?
I can create and log meals on my Android phone, but there are no foods showing so I can't adjust to show that I ate an extra 15 grams of potato chips, or only used 6 grams of yogurt butter. Logging whole meals should be faster and make life easier, but it's meaningless if I can't see the foods and their portions. Thanks!

How do you force yourself to work out when you’re full of excuses?
Hi friends — I’m not new to fitness… but I’ve completely fallen off. I used to lead 6 mile sunrise walks on beach in sand 7 days a week for 2 years.

iOS Users With Step Count Issues:
not getting credit for all your steps on MFP? MFP randomly changed my steps sync from Apple Watch to iPhone. I don’t always carry my phone with me, so I’m assuming this is what’s caused my massive shortage of steps. I was trying to figure out how to force some steps in and discovered totally by accident that the setting…
