Is there an accurate way to calculate your body fat compared to your BMI in MFP. My weight may vary but overall I'm really trying to gain muscle and lose fat so BMI isn't that useful to me

    Unfortunately, MFP is a scale oriented service. The closest they have is the body measurements. If the body part where you carry most of your fat (for me it is the stomach), is getting smaller, you’re losing fat.

    Thanks that seems to be the case with me too. Slow progress but seems steady enough. I was hoping there was something simple to get my lifting cardio and diet dialed in.
