Is there a way to set up My Fitness Pal for a carnivore diet?

Is there a way to set up My Fitness Pal for a carnivore diet? I have lost 64 pounds, 32 since I started using My Fitness Pal in September. I’m exercising like crazy, fasting, and doing carnivore diet but tracking my food intake isn’t very accurate on here. I have 26lbs more to go!! Thanks!!

    The app is as accurate as you make it. To be accurate, you need to weigh and measure. Not sure why you would be tracking though? The whole selling point of carnivore is their Schtick about just eat meat. Only meat. No tracking, counting calories. Just eat as much meat as you can stomach.

    Not very accurate how, exactly? What are you looking for it to track and report? It's a pretty simple tool at its heart, it's a big database of foods, with varying accuracy, but if you are weighing or measuring your food and using reliable database entries, it will be pretty accurate. You can adjust your macro goals to reflect your aims (I presume with carnivore it's next to no carbs, high protein/fat?).
