Been using this app is 2017. Just realized there’s a social component to it.

    Right?? I've had an MFP account for eight years and I've learned more in the last few months I've been active on the forums than I had for the past decade almost. Lots of smart, helpful people here and countless success stories.

    Yup. I used the app for some 6 or 7 years before I had any clue. Welcome!!! :)

    Same here, this is the third time I've installed this app to track food intake over many years. I just realized there are forums like a week ago!

    I always just logged my food, water, and workouts, and completed daily diary.

    Has anyone here used the groups? I’m interested in keto and fasting but it seems a little overwhelming

    Click on their name. Then click on their name again and you'll see a little friends icon. Click that and follow instructions.

    I've been trying to figure out how to join the group since getting message! Where are the groups. I don't see groups anywhere.

    On the community page there’s a button on the top left. Click it and you get a drop down. Group is on the bottom of the list. Hope this helps :)

    Been doing keto four weeks now, I love it! It's a lifestyle change I can easily live with for the benefits.

    In the first few days, I noticed I wasn't hungry upon waking. Wouldn't get hungry for hours (like 1-3 pm), and then hungry again around 7-8 pm. I had no idea what IF was. Looked it up and realized my body on this diet naturally started IF without any thought or effort to it.

    I don't know if anyone else experienced that. But I found it a little ironic.

    I'm looking for the keto group, but can't seem to find it in my mobile app I'm using. Is posting a link possible?
