Recipes and meal prep
I work long shifts and sometimes only have a spare 5-10 mins to pop to the staff room, inhale a snack and return back to work. Looking for food/meal ideas. Something that can be prepared the night before and can preferably be eaten cold. Current meal choice is a sandwich but I'm trying to reduce carb intake and increase…

Anyone else not able to upload a recipe from a website?
It's been awhile since I've used MyFitnessPal. The version I use to use allowed you to upload recipes from the web. It seems the updated app doesn't allow you to do this. Is this correct or am I just not seeing it?
Not always letting me create a recipe
I frequently create recipes to more accurately track my macros, especially for recipes I make often. Recently I have been receiving an error message when trying to create recipes - it will let me import from other websites, replace ingredients and get the details all lined up, then when I go to save or log it, I get an…
Healthy steps for seniors
I’m 65 years old, widowed, and should be retiring soon. I’ve been with MFP for several years, and I find that it’s been very helpful. I’ve never taken advantage of any of these discussions before, but I find I really am needing to connect with other people in my food bracket. I love to travel, and I want to be able to walk…
Tips or favorite recipes for increasing protein?
I am going through menopause and want to increase my protein intake. I would prefer to do it without adding a lot of meat to my diet, but have found it to be challenging. Any tips, suggestions, or favorite recipes would be appreciated.
Recipe search
It would be great to be able to search through the recipes I've added in my recipes section on the desktop site. I've got about 5+ pages of recipes so far so being able to find what I'm looking for through a search feature would be really helpful if possible.

Protein Snacks
Hey, I'm doing macros and always struggle to get my protein in and not go over in fat. I've upped my fat, but still it's an issue. I need some lower fat, higher protein snack ideas. I really don't care for chicken or really any meat, but I do it when I must.

Hello y'all
Hello My name is Carol and I am new to MyFitnessPal. I was diagnosed with T2 Diabetes in 2012 but I really didn't take it seriously because I didn't feel ill at all. Little did I know there was a lot of damage done to this body over these years. So here I am, a little scared but trying to figure it out. Most importantly, I…
Can’t believe how low calorie this was! Set me off right
I tried a mix of the baked oatmeal fad and this girl’s trick for losing 60kg. Her “trick” is to sneak in veggies and certain fruits to meals because they have low calorie high density (and of course, high nutrition). I modified hers a bit (she used zucchini but I didn’t have that on hand), I threw shredded carrots and…
Starting Fresh
Hi everyone, I have been inactive for a while but I'm back at it. My goals are 50lbs by this time next year. Would love to have support and to return the love to you. I love my job, my family, my dogs and to travel. Say hello anytime.
Search for own recipes in Food Diary
It would be great to be able to search within the recipes tab when in the Food Diary. I love the recipes feature and I currently have three pages of recipes. Instead of looking through all of them to find the one I just had, it would be great to type in a search area so it can pop up easier.

Unable to save my homemade recipes
For over a couple of weeks now (pretty much since the last update), I have not been able to save my personal recipes. MFP allows me to input all of the ingredients, recognizes all of the ingredients, but when I go to save and log it, I get this error message: "Unable to Continue. The operation couldn't be completed.…
Upload our own photo to recipes
Would like to be able to change or upload a photo to any recipe. Ones that we input ourselves don’t have one. When I have 25 recipes it’s easier when I can see a picture of it.

Options when eating out
Hi Everyone, I live in my car and haven’t started to use my camper stove yet so I eat out all the time. I need to find foods lower in fat and carbs, I have access to pretty much every restaurant that exists in southern California. Please drop your protein, weight loss, low fat, out to eat options!
Meal Planner with access to 'my meals'
The meal plans are currently limited to the MyFitnessPal recipes. Access to a blank meal planner that we can then pull our own recipes, along with the MF recipes, into would make weekly meal planning much easier and avoid having to use other apps or spreadsheets. Being able to scroll across a whole week that easily and…
Parity between mobile/web recipe interface
I am a heavy user of your recipes module. I regularly log, update and reference my own recipes in my daily log. There are several gaps between how the web and the mobile interfaces work. Specifically, the web interface allows me to copy an existing recipe in order to adjust it for ingredient variations. The mobile…
Saving and Printing recipes from my phone (no screenshots please!)
Hi, I have the app on my Android phone and also use the website. I'm getting really frustrated with the differences between the two, and my current frustration is with Recipe Discovery on the app. Can anyone explain how to print a recipe, and how to save it as a document? It's been suggested I take screenshots but that can…
Recipe Calorie
Question: I created my own recipe and entered it into the app. The calculations I’m getting put it at 116.6 calories per serving, however, the app is listing it at only 100 calories per serving.
New recipe infedients search same as diary
It would be cool if the search, when using new recipe would use the same cached sewrch from diary as the ingredients are usually the same. Also I would like to mix the recipes, use previous recipe in new recipe to refresh some food.
