I have just recently discovered the bar code scanner on the smart phone app for MFP for logging food and I LOVE IT!!! It makes logging my meals so much faster whenever I have just thrown together a quick meal such as a sandwich or side dish. The only time I dont use it is whenever I have actually made my meal and need to use the recipe builder, which is probably my second favorite tool on MFP. I have only found a few bar codes that are not in the database yet.

What is the best thing you have found on MFP to help with your journey?

    People to create a culture of health around me when I don't have it in real-life. Hanging out here makes it seem like eating better and taking care of yourself is the norm. Most of my real-life friends live lives of excess in the opposite direction of health.

    That when you reply to POOP THREADS you should clear it off your wall so it doesn't appear in the news feed!

    If you have the app on your phone.. whenever you go to add a food item, right beside the search bar where you type in what you are searching for.. there is a little blue button with lines. that is the barcode scanner. You push that, it brings up your camera and a red line. You scan your barcode with that. Its awesome!
