New to this
Hello! I’m 18 and am around 5’3 1/2. All my life i’ve been around 130 or lower. I recently started the depo-provera shot in June and stepped on a scale today and weighed in at 162.

I can't update nutritional information
I can't update nutritional information anymore. What's happening? I get an error message every time I try. This has been happening for two months now. I need to update as people don't understand that salt needs to be converted to sodium and will list salt as 0 because they don't understand how to convert or will enter the…

Add salt as an option in nutrition info or salt to sodium converter
Hi all. I saw an old post discussing adding salt to the nutrition info, from a few years ago. It wasn't in the feature forum, and I couldn't find another recent post discussing the matter. In the UK, most things are labelled with salt content, not sodium. I've found that this leads to a lot of incorrect entries for food,…

Open discussion on the minds ability to influence the physical body......
I want to know how other people feel or think about this. Lately I have been listening to a lot of podcasts/videos about the "powers" of the mind. In that you can "manifest/will" (for lack of a better term) things into existence. An example of this would be, someone tells you, you can't do something, and you believe what…

Getting Started - Binge Eating
Hello everyone, I am quite new to diet and nutrition, but not so much working out. However, most of us know that to receive true remarkable results, BOTH need to come into play. I currently am a college student with not a lot of food resources on a dining hall meal plan, and struggle with binge eating snacks and fried food…

Success without Eating "Healthy" Foods?
Hey everyone! I've been using MFP off and on a couple years, and this time around over the summer I've had a very great start. Even when not tracking every single day, I'm seeing progress weight wise, and even more importantly with my mental health and energy levels. I started at 200lbs, depending on the day I'm at ~187…

I crush my workouts after refeed days?
I know some do a refeed day when eating in deficit, but I eat at maintenance or a couple hundred cals above. And every so often I eat 500+ calories and while my stomach feels incredibly uncomfortable and I feel like a fat pos, I end up crushing my workouts the days following and feel less burnt out. Anyone else have this?…

Low Fat Rx
Recently passed a gallstone and was discharged from the hospital with a “low fat” diet recommendation. Textbook definition of low fat is apparently <30% of calories derived from fat, but I’m still in a trial/error phase of discovering how many grams of fat I can handle per day. Does anyone have low fat recipes they love…

Hi there!
Hi! I’m new to this community… I started my fitness journey from 100% sedentary to starting 75 HARD (if you don’t know what that is, Google it. It’s crazy!!) back in April. Since completing 75 HARD, I just kept it going. And now I’m on day 153 of every day fitness. I’m just now learning about macros and nutrition though,…

Moved here from Noom
Hello I just recently left Noom. Was part of it since 2019. But jumped ship. Landed here and I have to say that this App has a lot more to offer. I’m not here to complain about Noom. It just was not working for me anymore. So looking at this App I see so much more that I can glean off beside valor count fat/sugar/protein…

Still at it!
I took a break from MFP, but continued a healthy lifestyle, like all of us hit a bump in the road and need something to zero my focus on nutrition and fitness. A more intentional self-care approach.

Hi there!!!
Hi! I'm new to this neighborhood. I began my fitness adventure by going from being completely sedentary to starting 75 HARD (to find out what that is, do a Google search). It's insane! during April. I just continued going after finishing 75 HARD. I'm currently on day 153 of my daily fitness regimen. Though I'm still…

Accuracy filter for food searches
I'm just returning after a few years away, and the bar code scanning is now a premium feature, which I understand. But other than tracking protein/sodium, I really don't have a lot of use for the other features. One thing that would be useful would be more accuracy in the results of food searches. As it is, when you search…

PCOS & Pre- Diabetic
Hi, I’m on here trying to get help, and am honestly clueless. Around 2 years ago I was a completely healthy woman, perfect weight, and organs, I didn’t eat the best, but I didn’t eat the worst.
