Setting calories for post partum belly fat loss/skinny fat/body recomp?
I'm 6 months postpartum, 5'8", 133 lbs. I've always been (and still am) skinnyfat.

I don't care about "losing weight" since 133lbs, although 10lbs greater than pre-pregnancy, is fine for my height. I…

Myfitnesspal not syncing nutrition further back than when I got my iphone
So I’m just about to get an Apple Watch so I’m sorting all my data syncing with apple health before hand. I’m having one problem with myfitnesspal.

Adjusting the macros on a food item
Can we adjust the individual macros on a food item without making a custom entry? For example, an English muffin contains 4gms of protein, 1 gram of fat, and 25gm of carbs.
