Why is the barcode scanner behind premium?
Returning to myfitnesspal after 2 years of living my best live. Sad to see that I'm welcomed by a bigger paywall instead of innovation. There are so many calorie trackers out there coming up with new features, like foodvisor with useful lessons and a fun interface. Sadly, myfitnesspal seems stuck in the past. I understand…

Viewing calories not kilojoules
I would like to view and work with daily earning goals etc in CALORIES not kilojoules. The app seems to default to KJ and I can’t work out how to change this basic thing in settings. I’ve also tried the AI help which was useless!

Not Giving Up
Hello - I'm in my 50's and have ~200 lbs to lose. I'm not new to MyFitnessPal but I am new to the community boards. It would be awesome to find support and interact with people who are similarly trying to make changes even if it seems quite daunting. Wishing everyone the best!

New to sharing my journey
Hi All, Welcome to my little life with a BIG goal of 210lbs to permanently work off and release forever in healthy and fit ways! If only ‘loosing’ weight was that easy, I’d bury all of the excess, never to be seen or heard from again! In addition to using the app to track my daily food, water, occasional exercise and…

Customize Water logging
Is there a way to customize the water icons to reflect different volumes? My default water bottle is 16 oz. But this is not an available default on the log. Yes, I use the "custom", but would like to set my personal defaults.

It’s Mind Boggling How Much Sodium Is In Our Food
So I went to my doctors a few weeks ago and he told me how I had High Blood Pressure, it wasn’t very high, just slightly over the normal range, but serious none the less. He tells me how if I don’t worry about it now, it will just lead me to having all kinds of health issues in the near future. He says I needed to eat more…

Are you Dishonest, Slightly Dishonest or Completely Honest?
I’d like to know, as I’m sure others would like to as well, how honest you are with your food diary. Do you over-calculate? Under-calculate? Do you miss logging in days (or completing the day) because you know you are way over your goals? I think just like AA, diaries are important not only for accountability and honesty,…
