    Mine is private. Right now I am shooting for calorie and protein goals but I don't always make the healthiest choices. I thought it might keep me honest if I didn't feel inhibited thinking others might judge it. Now I see a lot of people have their's open. I do have one friend on here that I know in real life. I don't have any recipes or tips anyone could follow.

    Mine is open. Haven't had any bad comments yet.
    I also look at friend's diaries if they are open. If they eat under a 1000 I might ask if they were ill or what not? I'm not mean about it. Also I like seeing different options. I don't eat the same things all the time. I've even upped my calories within my weight loss when MFP dropped me to 1420. My BMR is 1576. At least one of my friends saw how that worked for me and has done similar. So I feel good about possibly influencing others.
  • I keep mine open, generally you are more accountable and is OK to give an idea to others as well, I look in other diaries to encourage or to correct if I think I should.
