New MFP Feature....thoughts? For people zig-zagging their c

kbdelarosa

Hey all, I just submitted this request in the messages, hoping someone will add this....thoughts?

Many many people on MFP cycle or zig-zag their calories. I think that there should be a way to add your daily calorie goal at the start of each week so that on days you have higher calorie allowances it won't say that you are over your goal. For example, instead of having the same daily goal, it would be nice if I could state that on every Monday my calorie goal is 1408, Tuesday it's 1128 ect.....there are a ton of people zig-zagging and this would be an amazing new feature!

I agree! It would make it so much easier.

That would be wonderful!

OMG yes it would be because I started zigzagging my calories and of course on my high calorie day it says I am over my goal by like 300 or more and I hate it.

If you click on "weekly" it shows you how you are doing on your weekly budget though. Obviously no one likes to see the big, ugly red numbers saying you're over, but at least you can see that you're still under your weekly calorie budget.

Do me a favor and go under the message board at the bottom (I think it says tech support or something) and write your thoughts there....let's push to have this added!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! I feel so guilty not seeing the "under" part of the entered her calorie goal message for the day! Drives me nuts! Thanks all.....hugs!

kristy - Where is the 'weekly' to click on and view? I must be missing it.

The weekly option is not available via PC; only on the phone app.

Also... Yes yes yes, please! to the request for zig-zag tracking ability.
