in Getting Started
Does anybody else love the barcode scanner as much as I do?!
It's been so much fun and I can't get enough of the little shock of joy that happens everytime it 'bloops' something. It has been great for keeping me on track. Even after I pig out, it makes me face that and log the stats just so I can scan something. lol
I've used MFP before very seldom and casually, but I am finding it now to he a VERY useful tool!! Now I'm just hoping to find some buddies! :) lol

    Yes. I'm very much a gadgetophile and I love to find ways to game-ify my fitness through various apps and peripherals. The barcode scanner is the very thing that made me choose MFP above all other tracking apps. It wasn't until after that I found that the list of foods is much more extensive than any other tracker I've seen, and the integration with so many other apps, plus the forum...it all wraps up into the best nutrition tracking site on the web or mobile app stores.

    I do too... I've been scanning everything just for the fun of it. Hey, if it makes changing our eating patterns fun, let's go for it!

    Agreed! I found the food database to be quite impressive! I will have to search around for some other apps to integrate with MFP.
    Edit: And, actually, my phone isn't the 'smartest' of the smart phones, so it was amazing to mey that the technolog even worked!
