Does anyone have a longer streak than me? 🤔

in Introduce Yourself

3845 Days today. Fitness is a lifestyle. Tons of ups and downs along the way. Many celebrations, disappointments, failures, restarts, blood, sweat, tears, etc. but to date. I started my journey at 242 lbs and as of today, I am at 185lbs. That’s great right? But, back in 2015, I got down to 167 lbs. I felt great but fell off and ballooned all the way back up to almost 220 in 2021. Well, I restarted, and here I am now. 185 lbs on my journey to my goal of 160. And Myfitnesspal has been there since day 1 of 3845 days. This app works. And I think it has helped me many times on this journey. I have learned so much about me simply by keeping track of what I eat, and all my exercises. Fitness is a lifestyle. I also wonder if MyFitnessPal has a prize for the person with the longest streak using their app? If not, they should. lol. I think I’d make a great ambassador for them. Been here through most of their changes also. lol! Happy logging everyone! I love this app!

    congrats on the weight loss. I'm sure you will get back to the weight you want to be.

    Great job getting back on track!
    A few of my friends were in the 3000/4000 range. Some left after they removed the newsfeed.

    Only 3521 days for me. But I know there are people here with longer streaks than me, or you. There have been threads about it in other parts of the Community.

    Most of the 3521 days, I logged food and exercise. I logged like religion during weight loss - class 1 obese to health weight - and for the first months of maintenance. Since then, I skip logging occasional days for various reasons, but still log most of them. My weight's been up and down a bit since loss, but I've stayed well within a healthy range, and always in the same jeans size. It works for me . . . at least so far.

    As of this morning my streak was reset without reason. I was at 1426 two days ago, and yes, I logged in yesterday. Has MFP been attacked by ransome ware?

    Ransom ware? Highly unlikely.

    If you're sure you logged in, much higher odds that there's a bug. Your streak can be reset to be continuous, I think.

    this is awesome! I’m glad that there are others. It does kinda suck though that they removed the community thread where it highlights the streak every 5 days. I liked seeing others in my friend group activity. I think it helps. :)

    Yeah. You can submit a ticket. Likely you didn’t log on time. But the streak can be salvaged. @justme312

    I was on this app back in 2017 but life happened and I stopped keeping track. Now I’m 7 months postpartum and want to get back on track for the sake of my kid. It’s only day 4, but it’s a start! You all are so inspiring!

    Did they get rid of the streak or is it somewhere different? I checked on my streak today and it's no longer where it used to be. I've never missed a day. I think I'm around 3600-3700?

    I don't know whether it's still someplace in the phone/tablet app, but it's still on the dashboard page of web browser MFP, as per below. I use both versions of MFP, but don't pay that much attention to my login streak TBH. Food-logging streak is probably more important, but I don't pay lots of attention to that anymore either: In year 9+ of maintenance, I still log, but don't worry if I miss logging a day now and then.
