Is there a way to reset your food log/info? I'd like to start fresh, but keep my log-in/community info.

    Are you talking about the recent entries list? If so, I don't think you can but eventually the food you haven't logged in a while will drop off the recent foods list.

    If you're talking about past log entries then again, I don't think you can but my question would be why do you want to? Even if it doesn't tell a pretty story it's valuable information that you can refer back to and learn from.

    Assuming you're on the app, go to settings then edit profile to change profile info. The for calories calculations go to goals, there you can change your starting weight (and date), and what your weekly goals and activity levels are.

    I'm assuming that's what you're after

    Thanks, I will look into those. I had tried MFP a while ago, but didn't do much with it. I just wanted to start fresh. I've been on the app everyday, reading blogs/community forums, but haven't done much logging. We cook a lot from scratch, and the attempt to put everything in, and then to wonder if the calories listed are correct or not, have been daunting. I was hoping to just start fresh with the recent food list/etc., to make it easier to "start". I'm not trying to hide the past, but starting new/fresh seems easier if I'm not searching through stuff that was previously there.

    Get food items from the database and your recent foods will soon change
