Have MFP do the calculations from serving size to what amount you use
This, imho, is where MFP fails epically. The user must calculate the amount take to coincide with the serving size that is labeled on the product. I am more than willing to put that data in, but what I want is when I serve my portion, I put in the amount I serve. For example, serving size of Thai's unsweetened coconut milk…

Set macro goals per meal
I’ve love to be able to set macro goals per meal, I have a set amount of carbs for a pre workout snack/ amount of protein post workout and I have to keep checking back to my nutrition plan to make sure I’ve got the right number, I’d love to be able to set these up per meal so I know what my target is.

Create 'Foods' from 'My Meals'
I like creating own meals. Lets say chicken schnitzel. When i log in for dinner, every little ingredient is listed (chicken, flour, greek yoghurt, panko crumbs, parmesan cheese, spray oil) which is fair. But if I can just list 'My Chicken Schnitzel' my dairy wont be so cluttered! Sure I have created a 'Food' from my recipe…

Decided to give posting a try - fell off but I’m back
Hi everyone, so I fell off for a while with tracking my calories and eating healthy and just staying focused and so I decided that maybe I should try posting for Accountability. In my defense, though I don’t need any, Christmas Thanksgiving, and then January, which is my three kids birthday month has been pretty difficult…

See ingredients of logged foods
Sometimes i want to log a whole meal, that people generally cook differently It eould be extremely practical if we can see the ingredients in the meals we log, and change them/change the ingredient quantities. That would be more precise.

Starting Over Again.
I've been on this site off and on for several years. However, recently I retired and have gained 25 lbs. I do have a Low Thyroid which does make it hard for me to lose weight, so I'm back to MFP to have some accountability and hopefully will lose those 25 lbs. Thanks for listening and I hope someone out there can help me.

Pasta- how much I should be eating
Hey guys. So I’m confused. I buy my pasta from Aldi- the spiral Remano and on the package it says per serving for uncooked it’s 100g and for cooked it’s like 240g. So if I were to weigh 100g of uncooked and I record that. When that cooked do I eat the whole thing or do I have to weigh out 100g of cooked? I’m really…

I've lost about 115 pounds so far, but I'm stagnating, so I thought it's about time I start tracking my intake of food. I'd love to hear about your success stories and what maintenance looks like for you. I'd also be…

Time food is eaten on desktop app like the phone app
It would be great to be able to put the time each food was eaten on the desktop app like the phone app!! That would be very helpful. It is great to have it on the phone app but I also like to use the desktop for logging.

High protein snacks for work
I a looking to get back into things in the new year and I have a desk job. I was wondering if you could share suggestions for high-protein snacks I can eat in the office. I am happy to make things from scratch.

Ability to put a bright green checkmark next to each food that is logged
I was thinking it would really be nice because I put all of my food for the day into MFP in advance that a bright green checkmark next to each listed and logged food item will be so nice to have so I can check off what I have eaten so far in the day at a glance. I think that would be very valuable.

Tracking More Than 5 Nutrients
Everything I've seen says I can track more than 5 nutrients in MFP and, sure, I can see more than 5 when I click on Nutrients but, when I go to change which ones I'm tracking, I only see 5 drop down menus. Bottom line, is there a way to track more than that? Moreover, is there a way to add foods with more than that? The…

Calories off on recipies input?
Hello everyone, not sure if this is the right spot to put this. I was adding a recipie i made (link below) https://sweetpeasandsaffron.com/slow-cooker-black-bean-quinoa-sweet-potato-stew/ and when MFP grabbed the nutritional info, automatically it shows 554 calories per serving but when you look at the site at the bottom…

What do you enjoy the most about your weight loss and fitness journey? I'm back and grateful
Hi Everyone, I'm back after a long time away and I'm grateful. My fitness pal helps me being impeccably honest in tracking and it always works. My honesty starts to ebb and flow when I don't track. I can rationalize this treat won't matter, again and again. At 68, I'm being forced to be honest and move daily. Fortunately,…

Exercise adjusted calorie goal
Is there a way to see your total calorie burn for the day? I'm curious if the exercise adjusted calorie intake goal maintains a target caloric deficit per day. Thanks.

Is there a food suggestion feature?
Hey! I am new to MyFitnessPal and love it so far! But I was wondering if there is a feature where foods are suggested to you? For example, today I have 331 calories remaining. I only have 2g fat left, but have 100g of carbs left. I'm also close to hitting my sugar/sodium limit for the day. So it would be helpful if there…

Time for a change
Hi everyone, I’m a new app member looking to loose weight and get fit. I’ve tried to loose weight previously and following a diet I managed it no problem, having had my 3rd child I’m finding it hard to do the diet/weight loss again. So here I am hoping this app will help and what makes it good for me is, I’m even more…

Why do over all macros show as more than what we’ve logged?
When I check my macros, it states I’ve had 16g of carbs. But when I’ve counted the carbs from the individual items manual logs, my carbs are less than 9g! So what is the 16g?!

I’m back!
Many years ago, this app really helped me find a sense of community that helped me reach a lot of goals. A lot has happened since then… escaped an abusive relationship, experienced many personal and family tragedies, and found myself turning to sugar and junk food for comfort. I gained over 100 lbs and ended up with…
