What is your MFP Report Card and Score?

EvgeniZyntx

How well do you log? Are your settings good? Macro tracking ok?

The latest version of the MFP Extractor and Trend Watcher now includes a score card. It can be downloaded from this blog:
http://www.myfitnesspal.com/blog/EvgeniZyntx/view/new-mfp-data-export-tool-major-update-659927

It looks at your data and evaluates several parameters from the setup, logging, macro tracking and TDEE over the last 30 days to provide a score card.

These values are then added and you get a score.

What is your MFP score? Mine in 970. I think I can log better!

I LOVE this tool

Protranser

I would like to try this. Is there any likelihood this will run on OpenOffice?

Is this for premium MFP members?

PeachyCarol

I have wanted to use this forever, but for some reason, IE won't work on my computer.

no it's available to all as it's a 3rd party add-on

I get that error everytime. It still works, for the most part, it just comes up for some reason, but the numbers, you will find, are all still correct even with that (Error 5)

You also have to make sure when it asks you BF% that you type in the box: 27%, and not just 27. Hope this helps;)

Interesting tool. Didn't notice that this thread was from last year lol, but thanks for posting this, EvgeniZyntx!

Whoops, wasn't getting the notices for this thread - the update excel sheet thread is here:

It is not part of premium but a free tool I developed.

Awesome! Thank you. I had fun playing with this when I first started. I now have nearly four months of complete data to look at. Last time I tried it wasn't working for me, so I am excited to look again.

I haven't checked this out yet, but it seems like a great tool to have. If all that data is there already, may as well use it!

EvgeniZyntx

Good, let me know what you think!

Here is a sample of one of the graphs it generates.



Provides me with an overview of the last 8 weeks.
I need to up my protein still, but weight loss and cals are moving nicely as I increase my running miles and total burns.

I started re-logging around 10th of Jan.

@EvgeniZyntx

I finally checked this out the other night. Great tool. It's nice to be able to see the data in bigger chunks than MFP allows.

EvgeniZyntx

Glad you found it useful!

Question about the MFP extractor but some background info first:

I workout at least 3 times per week...crossfit type workout. A couple of days a week, I also run a couple of days a week...3 miles each time. My job, however, is a desk job. I use the app UP to track my steps and also enter my workouts/runs thru MFP. I allow MFP to make the exercise adjustment. As of recent, I haven't logged like I used to, however, the problem I have happened even when I did log consistently.

The MFP extractor (which I love btw because I'm a numbers/graph geek) shows my observed TDEE to be 1103 +/- 110, my non-exercise observed TDEE to be 50 +/- 86 and my observed activity level to be 0.76. Of course, it says that the activity level seem very low.

Can you explain what I have done wrong in my inputs (other than not logging 100% of the time) to cause such a low TDEE?

SusanMFindlay

It's the not logging, I expect. The program might be assuming you ate 0 calories on those days, and that would dramatically lower your perceived TDEE.

This is a very cool toy. It didn't import my start weight correctly, but that was easy to manually override. Told me what I basically already knew (and am working on) - that I need to eat more protein.

@EvgeniZyntx - see my question above. Even when I was logging religiously, it was still off.
