Carb and other macro counts are showing incorrectly on website.
Carb and other macro counts are showing incorrectly on website but on my phone it is perfectly fine. Is this happening to anyone? Did I mess up a setting or something? Thank you
Trouble keeping my daily fat content down?
Heya! I'm hoping I could get some advice from someone who's done this before. I'm on a 1700cal daily diet with balanced macros (45% carb, 25% fat, 30% protein / 159g carb, 54g fat, 128g protein) and I'm having difficulty keeping my daily fats down. Primarily because there's fat in the proteins I'm eating such as chicken…
Macros goal by meal
Currently macro goals are by day, and then you can assign calorie goals by meal. But for those who like to adjust their macros by meal (timing, anabolic window etc), the implementation of protein, carbs and fats goals by meal would be fantastic.
Goals
I am vegan and 57 years old trying to gain muscle what should my protein and carbs a day look like ?
Custom Datasets
Would love a way to add a custom dataset. User could add a dataset to track. Examples could be: blood sugar or pulse rate or blood pressure. Personally,. I have another app to track my sugar levels, would love for that to be part of the app.
Reverse Dieting
Hello everyone! I'm curious if anyone has experience with reverse dieting. I have recently started tracking my meals here and am finding it difficult to eat more than 1200 calories per day/more than approximately 80 grams of protein per day. I eat a decent amount of veggies, fiber, and whole foods and am very satisfied. It…
Carb Totals For MFP Rollups Off For Some Reason?
Hi there -- Im wondering why on the app each entry is showing less carb totals than it should. Fat & protein don't seem to be affected by this. Just attached one example but this appears to be affecting every single entry. Is this a bug or am I just missing something important here?
Editing Macros for certain meals
My wife and I have been Hello Fresh customers for over a year and a half. I’ve been a MyFitnessPal customer for about 2.5 months. Absolutely love this app and love how much it has helped me nutrition wise, but one thing I would REALLY like to see is the ability to edit macros for meals that are pre-loaded into the apps…
Healthiest options to order at a hibachi restaurant?
Everything looks like it's cooked in so much oil. And I dislike going out to eat sometimes because I can't track macros. How do I go about tracking? Guestimates? I was thinking of getting hibachi shrimp with veggies or soybean edamame?
Macro for protein diet
Being post menopause, I noticed how much protein affects my weight lost and I would like to add more protein to my normal routine. I set up my macro as per 35%carbs, 35%Pro, 30% fat. What do you think if that balance?
I'm new
Hello, I'm on Day 19. I'm doing the macros. I'm daily surprised to find that I'm not eating enough food. I'm so used to the idea that starving yourself is the only solution... which is wrong. I'm trying to lose 50 pounds. I'm going to lose 50 pounds. :)
Premium version: ability to sort by macros when searching for foods
I have MFP Premium so I can use the Macros features. I need to consume a high amount of protein, and would love to be able to search by a specific macro. It would be helpful to be able to search my Recents and/or Diary because I’d be searching for foods I already have in my pantry and it would assist me in being able to…
Sort Food by macros (instead of A-Z)?
Hello- I am using My FitnessPal Premium, and love that I can specify macros I want to track. I’m having trouble hitting my protein goal. Is there a way to search foods based on macros (protein), instead of A-Z/Z-A and Date Added? If not, does MFP have a place to submit suggestions for future versions?
Hello Everyone!
Hi All! Its been a short while since I last used MFP but recently started with a new Coach who is going to be seeing me through to my first NPC Wellness Bodybuilding show. I have previously competed in the Bikini class but would like to build more strength and muscle and ultimately grow into a 'bigger' division - so that's…
starting weight restoration/muscle gain
hello everyone, i'm looking for some advice on building up my caloric intake so that i can first maintain my weight, then begin to build lead muscle (ideally on a fairly quickish timescale but i respect that's often not possible.) i'm currently in anorexia recovery and have struggled significantly in the past with feeling…
Weight Gain with fast metabolism
My Name is Hunt, I’ve been underweight most of my life. I’ve eaten to the extent of a normal person for a good portion of my upbringing, and most of the people of my upbringing of the same age were overweight. However I usually ate more than them. I have found my inactive calorie need is between 3500-4000 calories to…
Newly diagnosed diabetic need help with carb macros
So my doctor says I need 180 carbs a day. No more no less. 60 a meal. But the carb goal I set keep changing. I get it that with exercise I am allowed more, but can I keep the carb goal static?
Understanding Macros
Hi everyone Mandy here from South Africa. I have been using this app for the last 4-5 months now and one thing that confuses me is how best to calculate my TDEE and calorie deficit, I have used a number of different online calculators now so I think I have a good guideline so far and it seems to be working in terms of…
Use negative values in Quick Add
I think it would be helpful to allow negative values in quick add, to remove ingredients/add-ons for items that are already listed, but you do not want to create a new food just for the modifications you made. For instance - the [insert sandwich shop name here] club sandwich is already in the app and the macros are…
Accountability and motivation
Looking for help with accountability to keep on track. I was in good shape pre pandemic, had a gym I loved, and gym buddies who kept workouts fun. Unfortunatly gym closed so I had to find a new gym. I have tried 3 different places, but just not the same. Enough is enough, I need to get motivated, get toned, and feel…

Manual macro entries.
I've been using mfp for a while, but had to stop using it because of how it currently tracks sugar alcohols like erythetol, Monk fruit, and steevia, which are processed very differently in the body. If you have a low carb mode specifically pointing out net carbs, it should track accurately, or allow us to enter in specific…
Newbie with Goals, ISO Friends
Hi! I’m 49, F, looking to improve my health and learn more about nutrition. I'm currently exercising with a PT 2x/week (cardio in between) and now using MFP to track my nutrition (with macros). I would like to cut my body fat by 10-14% (roughly 25-30 lbs) by May next year and then maintain. I’m more focused on getting…
