However in this new phase of losing weight (again) my eating is very healthy. I have minimal adjustments I have to make with regards to getting rid of unhealthy snacks or candy.…

What to do when portion control takes away the pleasure on desserts?
A moderate slice of cheesecake feels like a slap in the face 🙈, like it is just a teaser 🥺. I even prefer to skip it than to eat a normal portion.

Nutrition label scanner
Are use a prepared meal plan for weight loss. And none of the foods are logged in your database. I don’t have a problem adding these manually, but it would be so much easier if I could scan the nutrition label to get all of the nutrition information logged in.

Bring back some sort of Newsfeed.
I tried “community “ when I joined, a few times after and recently. It is hard to feel engaged, negativity is a thing and much more tedious. I so, so, so miss the daily check-ins and inspiration from my friends. It is/was what set MFP apart from others.
