Hi :)
I've been using this app for a couple months now and I thought it was finally time for me to say something on the community. I'm having good success with my journey and maybe could even look for some friends to encourage each other

New here!!

I typically eat really healthy so my body probably isn’t see much “ change “ when it comes to eating. I would love some ideas to add to my healthy fats and good proteins to make into a…

However, one important change I was able to make, I was able to cut out chocolate completely (for some people…

That person will then put together random letters and the person below will make up an acronym and so on. For example: If the above poster said PZFG, my…

Scale System instead of # of Servings
Something I'd like to see implemented is a scale system to be able to really get the exact macros without guessing how much of a serving size is. I constantly am trying to get my last few macros and it's hard to get it down to the exact amount I need. An app I've used before with this system was RP. It costs money to use,…

Supplements (collagen/glucosamine/fish oil) and water retention
So I've had a 2kg jump on the scale lasting multiple days for no reason, and all I can think is that I started back up on my collagen/glucosamine/fish oil after a period of not taking it. Otherwise, I've eaten within my calories (a few high days but more than covered by some big exercise burns) and nothing's changed from…

Calorie Tracker Confusion

Do you think the Alexa App is needed?
There's a couple of people that have already made this post but why is this still not an option? is there some reason why Alexa doesn't want to partner with the company.

Measurements
I just want to say, especially for those of us who don't have a lot of weight to lose, the importance of measurements. Muscle weighs more than fat. I started at the beginning of the year watching what I eat, and working out. I have been tracking my weight and my measurements. So far I have only lost about 5lbs, but I have…

Changing goals
Hello. I am fairly new to My Fitness Pal and tracking macros. I used the “default” based on my weigh and weight loss goals. I would now like to decrease my calories. When I set my own goal with my daily calories and set my protein fat and carbs at 40-30-30, the numbers do not change in my daily dairy. So it continues to…

Headphones while sleeping
I actually sleep with headphones as a matter of principle. Sometimes with music (whatever), sometimes with "sleeping noises" like rain on a tin roof. Sometimes I just have the headphones on to minimise ambient noise. What experiences have you had with headphones? Which ones do you use? In-ear or over-ear? I had over-ear…
