A few of us in MFP have had to reset our days logged in
If you need to reset yours here is a message from Mike (site owner/manager?)
If your "days in a row" counter is incorrect, you can request that someone look into it for you by completing this form:
http://www.myfitnesspal.com/account/login_counter_reset_request
Just fill out that form, and someone will look into it ASAP.
Hope you are enjoying MFP!0 -
