What am I doing wrong? App says I’m like 1K cal / day
I have no idea what I’m doing wrong here but the app is yelling at me saying I’m only eating like a thousand calories a day. I really don’t think I’m eating that little of food, what am I underreporting on? Can anyone tell me common mistakes when first using the app?

Can you kindly look at my food diary for logging errors?
Hey guys, Being a little more vulnerable than I'd like to be here but my calorie deficit is not adding up to my weight loss. I have been consistently losing but I am about 8lbs up from where I should be based on my deficit and apple watch energy burned. I've been holding my breath for some kind of whoosh where I catch up,…

Automatically assign meal names (e.g., lunch) based on time frames I can set - Premium-only
Since my eating schedule is consistent day to day, I'd love to be able to set time periods for each meal type. This would make it so I never have to enter a meal type. They'd just be automatically set based on time. For example:* 12am–11am = Breakfast * 11am–4pm = Lunch * 4pm–7pm = Dinner * 7pm–12am = Snacks Actually, I…

You don't use a food scale?
We have many new members who have been around for about three weeks now. And there are lots of posts saying "I've been doing this for three weeks and haven't lost any weight!" Many responses to those threads tell the member to use a food scale. This video illustrates why a food scale is such a powerful tool for most…

I'm here to lose 3-4 stones AGAIN!
I'm back to lose weight yet again. I have lost weight 4 times now but keep putting it back on. I think I'm an emotional eater. I'm 47, married and have an almost 4 year old daughter. I have a lung and heart condition, so exercise is limited to just walking. Good luck everyone!

Five years
I joined My Fitness Pal on 23 February, 2018. Today marks five years. Guess what? IT WORKS!!!! Before I was on MFP, I was using a service from the US Department of Agriculture called "SuperTracker." It was non-commercial. It was much more klunky than MFP, but it was a public resource. I had some success. I was happy with…

Down 10 pounds this month!
I had been doing WW on and off for the past year or so. Recently started tracking in MFP instead and have been amazed. I feel like I can eat so much more. Point values for sweets are so inflated on WW. With MFP, calories are calories. I am trying to watch my macros as well… I’m learning so much more about nutrition in…

Newbie in the house
Hi all. I new to MFP looking to lose fat & weight. I’ve changed my daily focus to calories & protein but am a bit concerned about sugar as I love snacking on fruit.

Back in the saddle again
Hi, my name is Fin, although I have been a member for some years, I have not used MFP for some time.
