Hey everyone, my name is Mandy! I have used MyFitnessPal years ago, now I'm back and it is so different then it used to be. Any tips? I am on my weight loss journey and am trying to make healthier options and my goal is to get to a healthy weight, then maintain it! Thank you in advance for any future tips, motivation, and inspiration!

    I think the essentials are the same as they ever were: Set a reasonable, not overly aggressive calorie goal. Log everything you eat and everything you drink (logging calorie free drinks is optional), checking for accurate database entries and editing or adding your own as necessary. Use a food scale whenever possible.
