    Please bring it back. Was the only reason I logged on some days.

    Along with most of you, I’m very disappointed in the removal of the feed. That’s where I met and celebrated successes with my friends. Now we are disconnected, and I feel very alone. I don’t know about you but I’m not comfortable sharing my journey with total strangers. I don’t “friend” people I don’t really know. No one has yet explained why this removal was necessary. For this reason I will probably be leaving MFP in the near future. It just no longer meets my needs. BTW….this is coming from an 80 yr old woman who lost 130 pounds using MFP. I’m going to miss it.

    I am sad that the newsfeed was taken away. It helped so much with encouraging friends and celebrating our successes. This is why I came here and stayed for several years! Some of us connected so much we even met in real life and still keep in touch! This is a huge mistake. I have been a premium paying member for at least 2 years. Time to rethink staying here.

    I’m trying to find out where I can go now to see my friends workouts, days they logged in and diet plans. I can’t even get to my notifications that have been sent to me by friends. The main reason I use this app.

    It has been removed from the MFP app permanently at this point - announced to occur by end of June. Some people saw it happen delayed a bit, depending on when app updates happened, or something.

    MFP decided it wasn't valuable enough to update it and deleted the entire feature. :(

    I wish MFP hadn’t taken away the number of days logged. That was an inspiring part of MFP. Please bring it back

    It's still there: in the app, go to the 'More' menu and you'll see it at the top.
    I still see it on my homepage too, but I'm not sure if everyone has the some homepage view.

    I suggest we all send an email to complain. I’ve been on MFP for over a decade! I can’t see how my friends are going and I’m no longer encouraged or accountable because no one can see if I over eat now. Worst decision ever. Think I will use another app

    Wow... This is BS.

    Underarmor has done nothing but make this app worse and worse.

    Congrates A-holes

    Under Armour sold this app years ago.

    This was one of the dumbest decisions. I've been with MFP since it started. I got to meet & cheer on people on here. Now I can't. What's the purpose of this app.? You took away the fun.. the encouragement, the interactions with the people we chose to become friends with. Sad... you're going to lose a lot of people.

    Ridiculous that they took away the best feature of this app! It's like they don't want us to be social with folks we have known and encouraged on here for years... the big lie of low utilization is insulting... what are you really doing mfp? I will be bidding you adieu after 4431 days logged, and I've been here since 2010...smh

    Hasn't belonged to Underarmor in four years. (And they sold it at a loss.) You are insulting the wrong people.

    I could not agree more. What's the point of having friends if you can't see their progress and encourage one another or get meal ideas from others. This is so ridiculous. MFP - wrong decision, sorry!
