πŸ™‹πŸ½β€β™€οΈ Hey there! I have see a few of my Fitness Warrior πŸ›‘οΈπŸ—‘οΈ friends here. I am figuring out how to navigate these changes. Not really interested in using IG, since you cannot really control what shows up in your newsfeed and it is NOT fitness-centered. Gonna give these communities a college-try for now and continue to use the food diary. Will probably stop posting and responding on my MFP newsfeed in a couple of weeks. Let me know what some of your plans are please. Take care.

    Hi, I guess we will see, eventually start a thread with my progress on food and exercise and eventually other plans, but let's wait to see what it will be
    Have an awesome evening and night!

    Sounds like a good plan. The main newsfeeds are being phased out and people are saying they can't even read the our current comments, so why post there? I figure, 2 weeks and it will be worst. We will see. Thanks for reaching out, Monica.πŸ™‹πŸ½β€β™€οΈ

    I will do just that, try. I figure in 2 weeks it will be worst. Many people are posting that they cannot even read current posts. I guess postuntil you cannot anymore. We will see. Thanks for reaching out, Karl. πŸ™‹πŸ½β€β™€οΈ

    I think the no more newsfeed reality hit me and kinda making me depressed. I don't always have enough time to devote following the newsfeed but when I do, it's a great place to chat with like minded souls dedicated to healthy lifestyles. It's something I don't have in real life where everyone I know is unhealthy and doesn't care to make changes for the better. I did get Chronometer set up. And in a way, it pisses me off because I just recently paid MFP so I can export my data to review with my dietitian. And Chronometer is superior in stats with a zillion more micro nutrients or things like alcohol and caffeine appear to be tracked.

    Based on reviews in the App Store, Looks like more than a few folks have moved over from MFP to Chronometer. Thanks for the heads up

    June 1st---comments in these separate & not so easy to find Community pages are dropping off an awful lot, while I understand that we can try to maintain our connections at "lose it" or similar, if none of those offer a "newsfeed" ...then why not remain here?

    @NoMoreTwizzlers @zebasschick @2essie @karlschaeffer @esthertabois @mlboyer100 @kendallvon --- and all of our other friends...your input appreciated.

    Really, staying is very personal, but the way we are interacting on the feed is going away quick (quicker for some). It could happen at any time.

    You can also find me on IG (Instagram) @NoMoreTwizzlers.

    I am staying until, I cannot see any posts in the news feed to respond to on any platform. Now, I only use MFP on my Android phone and on the web version using my iPad and PC.

    πŸ™†πŸΎβ€β™€οΈ Seems to me that they need a πŸ†•οΈ market research team since, they seem to be hemorrhaging subscribers, free and paid.
