This app is by far the best thing i have come across yet...i just started this site about a week ago and its kind of hard to keep up with food when your gone all day, but with the app on my phone i am able to keep up with my calories and exercise with such ease!!! ITS AMAZING...i didnt think this site would work for me until i got the app, but now i have gone almost a whole week and stayed mostly around my goal- something i wouldnt have been able to do without it.

also i can be out at a restaurant and look up something on the menu and see if it will work with the calories i have left

ITS TRULY AMAZING...

anyone else have the app and love it?

if you dont i advise you to get it TODAY...it has made staying on track 100% easier for me!

    I found the ap before the online site, but my online ap doesn't have the profile, posts and messages. Am I missing something?

    I agree completely.It's very helpful because it's always with me-and I need that by the time I get home and time to log in on the computer I will have forgotten too much.Do you have an Iphone?

    Oh totally. I found the site because of the app as well. I love how great it is for tracking but I agree that it could use the profile and whatnot. It's not that big of a pain though for me to just use my browser on my phone to come to the site if I want to approve friends or post something.

    Yes I have the app as well, but I am frustrated that I can't read the discussion board, view my inbox or friend requests.

    I do like that fact that I can track on the go or put something in before I eat it to see how it calculates.

    It's great. Wish it had a barcode scanner for food though. Other than that, it's EXTREMELY handy.

    The app doesn't have those things. But, if you have internet access on your phone, you can just access MFP directly for those features (not using the app). But, strictly for the purpose of being able to log/view/track your calories, nutrients, exercise, etc, the app is GREAT!

    That's how I found this site. A friend told me about another app but I couldn't find it. Once I found the app I then came to the site.

    I put the app on my ipod touch and didn't know at all about the website, if I had to rely on the computer I would never keep track.

    I dont use facebook anymore(and no im not confusing the forum with the app). I usually am making up recipes and or finding out macro's for some food before I even think of eating it.

    I love the app on my android. My husband was jealous that I could be sitting in the restaurant and still note my calories. The engineer in him asked me all kinds of questions about it.

    I too found the website because of the App - one of my friends showed it to me and I fell in love with it. Most of my lunches during the week are out so it is nice to log it as I am ordering the food. Best food journal I have ever done!

    I also used to use a similar app on on my iPod Touch called Lose It, but found this one when I got my new android phone. It seemed that I was always having to edit or create foods with Lose It. Rarely do I ever have to with MFP. It's waaaaay better. Plus the community of friends who support & motivate is the piece I was missing.

    I used the app for at least a month before I came to the site. I'm posting this from my phone now. I use the app to track but I use the phone browser to get here if I have free time and want to post or read my mail.

    I don't think I would have lost the weight without MFP.


    Edit: crap. It IS harder to type though lmao

    Yes! I use and it and I love it. That's what got me hooked!

    If you want to go further than just entering your food and exercise, just sign onto the site with Safari. It's all there for you. Of course you have that miniature keyboard and your eyes have to be pretty good -- but it's all there!

    MFP is one of the best things to have happened in my life of late -- and best of all, it is all FREE! Free is good!

    I found the site via the app and 6 weeks later, I'm still on track and LOVING it.
    I check out the forums using safari also...
