Meal Prep

Hi guys, im a teenager and i just got into working out and keeping track of protein/kal intake!! im looking forward to connecting with people who can help me on this journey!!
Who are your favorite Tik Tok or Instagram influencers for meal prep/recipes?
I have been a huge fan of Skinnytaste.com for years. Recently my son and I are trying to increase our protein intake and we love Zach Coen RD/LN and MaKayla. Who do you love?
Healthy food
I need some help, I need to cook food that has 140g of protein, it can be more than one meal, but it is important that it wont be more because I eat 5g of creatine. Does anyone has any recipes/food recommendations
Single Lazy Meal Prep
I’m new to this journey. I’m 23, recently moved out and found myself larger than ever. I am almost 250lbs at 6”1”. I struggle with having meals ready when I don’t want to cook and I have 4 dogs. I don’t really know what to cook or how to prepare it and I’m on a budget. I just don’t know where to start, would appreciate a…
A small post about big results (300 lbs -> 220 lbs)
I am not sure I have much to teach anyone but hopefully some will find this post inspirational. I have been large most of my life and have hit 300 lbs twice. Once in high school and again some time after graduating college. In June 2022, just before my 29th birthday, I did a lot of research into the best ways to lose…
I am getting a month's worth of groceries all at once.
I know that I will have to take a number of days to make things, but first is breakfast burritos, High Protein Breakfast Burritos, Sheet Pan Burritos, and Breakfast Muffins. Each of the Breakfast items makes 10 servings each. I am focusing on that for now. I pick up my groceries today between 1 and 2 pm from Wally World.…
Recipes exporter
It would be useful to be able export recipes singly and/or in bulk. I have 300+ recipes in MyFitnessPal but the one I want to refer to can be hard to find. Being able to peruse some data (e.g. a set of recipes in TXT files; or json structures, etc.) would be much easier than the current methods in the app or on the website…
My Recipes search enhancements
I was recently trying to find a recipe for something I had made previously but wasn't able to find it. Over the years I've added a lot of recipes in Fitnesspal - 31 pages of them when I look on the website! - and trying to find them is NOT easy. I think it would be helpful if the recipes I added in Fitnesspal could be…
Log for my spouse/friend/family member
My spouse and I are both premium members. If I make breakfast for us and log my breakfast, she has to look all up and log it herself from scratch. Same if she makes a very complex smoothie for me, etc. I wish there was an easy way to select/share log entries with a "friend" where i could just send them over and she clicks…
Have MFP do the calculations from serving size to what amount you use
This, imho, is where MFP fails epically. The user must calculate the amount take to coincide with the serving size that is labeled on the product. I am more than willing to put that data in, but what I want is when I serve my portion, I put in the amount I serve. For example, serving size of Thai's unsweetened coconut milk…
Pasta- how much I should be eating
Hey guys. So I’m confused. I buy my pasta from Aldi- the spiral Remano and on the package it says per serving for uncooked it’s 100g and for cooked it’s like 240g. So if I were to weigh 100g of uncooked and I record that. When that cooked do I eat the whole thing or do I have to weigh out 100g of cooked? I’m really…
High protein snacks for work
I a looking to get back into things in the new year and I have a desk job. I was wondering if you could share suggestions for high-protein snacks I can eat in the office. I am happy to make things from scratch.

just starting plant based eating- would love to connect with those who are doing the same
Hi - I haven't been on this site for years! But I think I need this - connection with others working on their health. I'm just starting plant based diet via recommendation from my doctor. I have some artery blockage and minimal heart issues. But trying to get cholesterol down naturally.
I'm looking for healthy recommendations that can be purchased at Walmart. Suggestions?
So full disclosure, I have a living situation that prevents me from being able to purchase fresh food. All of the foods that I purchase are to go type of meals like tuna bowls and the like. I don't have a way to change this any time soon so I'm looking for advice on items that can provide adequate nutrition while being…

Chia Seed Pudding recipes
I've been reading about the benefits of chia seeds and interested in using them more often in my plan. I made one last night for my breakfast this morning and I wasn't really thrilled. It was a chocolate pudding, made using cocoa powder. There was maple syrup as a sweetener but it didn't really cover the bitterness of the…

New Recipe!!
Sweet Chili Chicken Stir Fry
amount of food and nutritions
How do I customize the amount of food I'm eating when I log food consumption? For example, if the only measure given for a food I've searched is 100 grams, how do I enter that I've eaten just 63 grams? Thanks in advance for your help!
Weighing food
I am having a hard time understanding about weighing my food and how much I am I taking. When it says 1oz or 1g of fruit and when I measure it it doesn’t even say that it will say 20 on my scale and under 4oz on my measuring cup

Overate again :(
Hi guys I've posted before that I'm 5'5 175 lbs tryna get down to 135. I used to eat 1600 calories a day along with heavy strength HIIT workouts at a bootcamp I go to (think f45 but more cardio). When I ate at 1600, at least 2-3 times a week I got to 2300 with higher calorie meals or bad planning essentially. I tried to…
