Intense Plateau
Hello everyone. My name is Frey and over the past 8 years I've lost 135lbs, then gained 30lb back during covid that I haven't been able to loose. But it's been a year, and I'm literally the same weight. HELP. It's a long post, not sorry about it. Female- 6'1" - 200lbs - goal: 165lb A year ago, I decided to crack down on…

Logging Recipes
Is there no way to add a recipe by weight as opposed to set servings? Sometimes I'll just want to log 100g for example of whatever the food is (soup e.g.) and not necessarily a set serving size.

I wanna give up. I love eating, I don't like walking
Ugh, and the numbers game with my calories and macros is annoying. I'll admit in my previous routine sometimes I ate badly because I am a foodie. However in this new phase of losing weight (again) my eating is very healthy. I have minimal adjustments I have to make with regards to getting rid of unhealthy snacks or candy.…

Weight loss progress not updating?
So I’ve been on plan a week… in a healthy deficit all week and as a result I’ve lost 2kgs in my first week - you best believe I logged that drop so quick I almost tripped up running to the app. I added it feeling proud! When I nipped on later to log food I notice that my newsfeed updated the change for my friends to see…

Asking for help on how to lose weight the right way without using drugs
For the first time I am learning what it means to be okay with honesty and self-care. My entire life I've never given myself the gift of self-love. So I'm attempting to go outside my comfort zone and ask for help. This is very hard for me and I'm doing the one thing that I've never had the courage to ever do in my life. I…

Automatically Determine Meal to Log to Based Off Time of Day
I would love it if the app would automatically determine which meal to use based off the time of day. Maybe you could set the hours that pertain to a specified meal. For example, if I log something at 2pm, often the default meal is breakfast but I’m not logging to breakfast. I usually forget to change the meal (especially…

What happens when your macros aren't perfect?
I struggle with fat content. I can stick to the calories just fine but my fat content hovers between 30-40%. Today it's showing I'm over my fat by 7grams. I'm wondering if this side tracks all my tracking because the fat is too high?

Out of calories for the day and haven't had dinner. Any ideas?
Not sure how I miscalculated beyond having a large(ish?) Breakfast but I'm out of calories for the day with only 55 g of protein acquired. My total kcal for the day is showing 1550 and I try to stay at 1600. I want to increase my protein with a shake or maybe some meat. Not sure if I should just try to survive til the…

"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…

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.

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…

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)…
