    Hi. I wrote a tool to export the reports data as .csv files for use in Excel or similar programs. No fancy graphs, but it should work on both Mac and PCs. I just finished writing it a few hours ago, so with your feedback, I'd love to make it a better tool. Thanks! http://foodfastfit.com/myfitnesspal-x-foodfastfit/

    Thanks again for this. With the data I've been able to work out this:
    Over 269 days, total cals in = 752901
    Lost = 10 lbs
    Deficit = 35000 calories
    Cals out = 752901 + 35000 = 784401
    Over 269 days, observed TDEE = 2929 calories per day.

    Thanks for this. That's a neat way of doing it!

    I'm not currently running chrome on my machines for various reasons and am focusing on the next version of my tool. But afterwards, when I have a moment I'll install it and take a look!

    This is very cool. I can't get any of the weight data to download, but the meal log, macros, etc. downloads fine.
    I use excel 2010 in windows 7. Not sure what the problem is.... I will reread through the thread to see if I missed something.

    Thank you again.

    Thats pretty cool, thanks. Wondering if the dates are messed up on purpose? For example:

    Nov-13 - 01/11/2013
    Nov-14 - 01/11/2014
    Nov-15 - 01/11/2015
    Nov-16 - 01/11/2016

    Incrementing by years and not days?

    Try the different export methods and see if one of them works, please also see the setting notes in the blog.

    Depending on the way excel interprets dates, it could think that 11/13 is actually 1/11/13, and 11/14 is 1/11/14; misinterpreting the day for years

    Hi. I just made a small change to explicitly set the 4-digit year. This should help Excel correctly infer the date. Please let me know if this works for you. Thanks. http://foodfastfit.com/myfitnesspal-x-foodfastfit/

    Much better now. Now follows: MM/DD/YYYY. I'll just re-configure it to DD/MM/YYYY myself, thanks!

    You can download ky2k, that will make it easier to insert 4 digits into your date.

    This Excel program exports weight, calorie, macro and dairy data, provides some trend and projection analysis and takes a look at your macros. It provides reference TDEEs and calculates an observable TDEE from your own data.

    The current file is MFP2v4.xlsm
    ...
    It can be downloaded here: http://www.fileswap.com/dl/jIALndWL1T/

    Thanks!:drinker:

    *ETA: Old version (v4) wouldn't open in Excel 2013, but newer version (v13) did. I got the link from OP's profile:

    Just tried it and its not getting any weight data on any of the options. Getting "there was a problem with your request" on option 3 from MFP when I log in.

    Running on Excel 2013. Not sure if it is just a temporary problem?

    Just downloaded this today and I am getting the same issue. I'm wondering if this is because I have only 7 days of data so far?
