Low Sodium
I have just started my journey to watching my sodium. Holy Cow! I thought a salad from chickfila would be ok. The sodium in it is 2200 without any dressing. Anyone else trying to fight the sodium consumption and how are you doing it? I work 2 jobs and finding the time to consistently meal prep is a challenge and then when…

BACK ON THE APP
Hello fitness community. I've been a member since 2012 but had to stop using the app as I was in the mainland China, and access was spotty at best. Like most of you, I struggled with my weight since collage. In 2018 though I got very serious about getting fit, and went from 107KG to 85kg which worked out to about 18% body…

Still no way to share recipes..??
The description of this group is "share your favorite recipes...", but it seems we still cannot actually do that from the app..?? I have lots of recipes I've created that I'd like to share with friends so they can easily follow them and add them to their own diary. Am I missing something or is there still really no way to…

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…

Created Recipe Serving Size
Hello! So I have a question about creating a recipe in the app. I have read different posts & am pretty sure I'm doing it right, however I am stumped when trying to determine how many servings a recipe makes. So part of my issue is that my husband is the one who does all the cooking. I can scan in the ingredients to…

Recipe Serving Size Yieldings
Hello, I was wondering if you could tell us exactly how many cups, ounces, etc. are in a serving for each recipe. For example, instead of just saying “serves 4” can you break it down to “each serving yields 1 cup.” I need to know exactly how much of something to eat. TIA!

Breakfast Alternatives
I'm looking for a tasty & quick way to eat a healthy breakfast. I usually do a toast, bagel, or something on the go. I've tried First Watch breakfast or Panera but it has so many calories. I fast at night so I eat breakfast and lunch and skip dinner. Any suggestions?

Kale & Chicken Soup
So we have a bearded dragon that we buy vegetables for, and I want to try and find uses for the large amount of leftover he doesn't eat, since he's just one small lizard, lol! This week we bought kale, and I'll be honest, I've never had kale before! But I knew it could be used in soup, so I made an experimental soup last…
