"My Pantry" section for saved foods
I often find myself searching through much of my history just to find one item that I had several days or even weeks ago. I'm always worried that it will fall off of the "recent" list and then I'll have to do lots of searching to find it again. It can be difficult to find my regular known items -- the ones that I actually…

Keep column titles in view on food logging screen
I would love to be able to see the titles of the food macro columns when scrolling down. I have to keep scrolling to the top to figure out which numbers I am looking at.

Volume Eaters Thread
I have recently come to the conclusion that volume eating is best suited for me. Eating mainly vegetarian means I can eat copious amounts of food and stay in my calorie goal. Are there others out there who do the same? Let's exchange ideas. Here is what I ate today: Breakfast, large shake with 2 cups spinach, almond milk,…

Here We Go Again
Hello to my fellow healthy lifestylers! I have been using the MyFitnessPal app on and off for 5 years now. I am a 45-year-old mother of 2 grown children and Yaya to 3 grands (all under the age of 5). I have struggled with my weight since my 20s. I have tried a variety of diets, fads and trends over the years with some…

Voice logging
Something I’ve been noticing a lot in other apps is the ability to log food with your voice. I know we have a meal scanner and barcode scanner, but this feature would be so useful to have and make logging much quicker.

Exercise calories
Is it ok if you don’t eat exercise calories? I’m trying to lose weight and new to My Fitness Pal. Came over from WW as I want to ensure I learn about calories, fat, carbs so I can keep weight off.

Today was a disaster
Today was not a good day to log food but it was a good family day.

Optimize iPad version of the app
I’m thinking the Dashboard can be heavily optimized for the iPad since it looks like a blown-up version of the iPhone. Is there any plan to make the charts and graphs smaller/more visually appealing?

Beans and nuts. HELP!
So lately beans and nuts have been really messing up my calorie count. I'm cutting right now and have been eating at 1700/day for the past few weeks, but I need high protein to feel full and like eating at 100g protein a day. The problem is, a lot of my protein intake comes from beans and nuts, which are VERY high in…

Why is MyFitnessPal saying I will gain weight when I am under calorie goal?
Hi there. I’m not sure if this is a silly question or if I’m misunderstanding the app’s calculations. I have been using the app to count calories for over two weeks now. For the past couple of days I have been 146 and 418 calories under my 1500 calorie daily goal respectively. Yet when I press “complete diary” at the end…

I don’t lose/gain weight. I eat fairly healthy my plates consist of 25% protein, 25% carbs (rice) 50% veggies (fresh produce). I typically…

Some thoughts on "Starting Over"
Starting Over Since starting to use MFP – I have noticed a steady stream of people writing “starting over” posts. They tell the age old story of “I tried and failed, now I'm trying again”. There is often an unhealthy dose of self-flagellation – as if beating up on yourself is actually going to help. There is often the plea…

Pregnant and tracking- for health reasons.
I’m pregnant but I’m 40 lbs overweight. I am so overweight I have been informed I should actually not gain weight, but at most 10 lbs. There is no medical need for me to gain weight. I am trying to at least maintain. I started at 187, and was 194 by 10 weeks. My Dr. was concerned. I have been tracking now (my Dr. is aware)…

How do you count calories for takeout food? Specifically Indian
I ordered in today because I wasn't feeling well to cook. Specifically I got Chicken Makhani and Dal Makhani. I weighed everything on my scale - 3 oz of chicken, 50 ml of the sauce (Im assuming its made of heavy cream and butter, spices) and 50 ml of liquid dal, that had some oil on top. I had one half piece of a large…

Kitchen Scale

Today needs to be my day 1
I weighed myself this morning, I knew that I was gaining but my jaw dropped when I saw that number. I thought to myself it's no wonder why 4 year old asked me if I had a baby in my belly. I am carrying around my middle mostly, but I have extra inches all around, nothing fits like I want it to and I gaze at my closet in…

Coming back to weight loss, need friends for tough talk and support.
Hi I lost over 5 stone about 3 years ago using a rival food logging app (take a guess which one) but let myself slip massively and put back on 6.5 stone since then, i made an active decision to start losing weight and get fitter after being barely able to walk due to altitude and lack of fitness on a recent ski holiday, so…

Disappointed that the News Feed is being discontinued
Two years into my lifestyle change journey, I am so discouraged that MFP is shutting off the newsfeed feature. I have learned so much from my MFP friends and because this code is old and buggy, it's being removed. As a former IT manager, I know that there's always the calvary to the rescue! Come on, MFP! Please don't…

Sadly life and the horrible events my partner and I have endured has caused my weight to spiral. Since I have…
