in Recipes
My husband and I are both using My Fitness Pal. I uploaded a bunch of my recipes over the last year. Now that he's using MFP too, is there a way to link our accounts so that he can search my recipes and add to his food diary? My recipes are not in the MFP database (although I submitted at least one of them last fall, and it's not coming up in search results for him, so I'm not sure what happened there...)

Does anyone know how he can access my recipes?

Thanks!

    If this isn't a thing already, it really should be. I would love to be able to log dinner for both of us when we eat together.

    Second this! I don't believe you can and my husband also started using MFP. Since I am the only one that cooks, I am left to weigh, measure, and relog everything for him and have to recreate meals and recipes that I have on my own already. It would be great to be able to copy recipes and meals from mine to his!

    My husband used to log on MFP and when we were both doing it, we used this work around:
    - My husband logs the meal
    - I go to my husband's diary and copy the meal to mine
    - If it is something I know I'll eat again (favorite recipe or something) I'll save it as a meal so I can add it again easily

    I completely agree that it would be amazing to be able to copy/save recipes from friends.

    When you log one of your meals (in your diary as youve eaten it) any of your friends can click on your dairy and copy your meal into their own diary for the day (they can then add it to their own saved meals)

    Hope this helps :)

    My husband and I were just talking about this same thing last night! It would be nice if they could be linked!

    Thanks for the work-around tips though!
