How do I get items into 'my foods' area, when I search on that page it says 'nothing found'. Thanks for any help.

    Are you using a computer or smart phone? MFP has thousands of foods, so something should come up.

    Try a more generic term. If you just type in one word, like "Chicken" you'll find a whole mess of choices and you can find the one that most suits what you had to eat.

    Do you mean when you are trying to add foods? The only stuff in the My Foods tab is stuff that you personally add to MFP. Same with My Meals. If you are logging stuff you search for in the database, it will appear under Most Used or Recent.

    Or is that not your question?

    you have to add them..click food, then 'my food' then ' create food.'

    After you have posted say your usual breakfast and you want to repeat it for the next several days..weeks...etc. You can click on Quick add and choose "remember meal" (I think that is what is says) and it will add it to "my meals" then when you want to add it you just open up "my meals" and choose the one you want. I hope this helps! Blessings!! <><

    My Foods are those which you've added to the database, so if you haven't done that, there won't be anything there yet.

    Thank you everyone. I'm sure the answer is here, I just have to go back and try and figure out which one. Thank you again.
