Myfitnesspal Reports with iIteractive Graphs

Hey all,

So I got a little tired of the default graphs that are shown in the reports section. So I built my own handy bookmarklet, which at a click of a button, shows me much interactive graphs, to zoom in on all your data so you can see much more information.

I found it really helpful, so I thought I'd share with everyone else.

Edit 2:
This project is free to use and the code is online for all to see. (For the fellow geeks out there)

It may take a minute or so to load all the data, and I did not test this in IE only Chrome and Firefox browsers.

    Neat idea!

    It doesn't seem to work in Chrome 24 though

    Uh oh really? Does anything load? I'm using the same browser, and everything seems to work in chrome and Firefox.

    And Chrome needed an update and now it does.

    It just stuck on the spinner the last couple times.

    Now it's good - and VERY cool.

    Yeah, it can take a little while to load the data, but it shouldn't take more than a minute or two.

    Thank you. :)

    You can also click on a date to see your diary entry for that day, but only when not in zooming mode.

    Great idea but it is not working for me. I have Chrome 29 - most current version. When I click on the saved bookmarklet button it just takes me to http://jsfiddle.net/6zHWg/ Am I missing something?

    Did you drag the link into your bookmark toolbar?

    Not sure where the jsfiddle connection would come from - maybe you have something setup in your browser for that?

    You could just create a bookmark to:

    javascript:(function(){function addScript(src,cb){var script=document.createElement('script');script.src=src;document.documentElement.appendChild(script);}addScript('http://raw.github.com/stevenirby/myfitnesspal-reports/master/nutrition.js');})();

    Thanks. I had copy/pasted instead of dragging & that made the difference. I dragged it & got the correct page. It is slow to respond & I get a pop-up that the page is unresponsive but it eventually shows the information.

    Very cool to see these two combined.

    This confirms that my body loses fat best when I eat more calories as opposed to very low. Combining eating enough with getting enough sleep on a regular basis results in an even better loss. The chart doesn't show the sleep but I track that with an app.

    I really like seeing the average of everything over time, too. It makes it easier to see where improvements can be made.

    Thanks! This worked!

    Very glad it's working for you both!

    Yes! The averages are super-useful. Vitamins, macros, calories, workout minutes, etc - lots of these are more useful and interesting to me when displayed as a average over a specified period of time.

    kilroy123 has really made a very useful tool.
