Hi Folks! I am an Aspiring BodyBuilder and I am NEW!
Hi Folks! I am new on MFP and I am currently preparing for a Figure competition. A bit about me - I am a pneumococcal meningitis survivor, have battled depression from bullying arising from scars, and had to constantly prove that I was human. I am competing in the Figure class to show everyone that anyone can overcome…
Back at It
On a wellness journey but tracking seems to be one of the hardest things to do consistently. Back at it trying to log everything on Fitness Pal. Happy to find an accountability partner.
2 different phones show different options when searching the same thing?
My wife and I searched for exactly the same meal to put in our apps (homemade vennison caserole), and both had different options offered to us. Hers offered vennison sweet potato caserole as the first option. But mine I couldn't even find that. Anybody know why MFP would only show a particular meal for one of us, but not…
Weight loss
I have been overweight most of my life. But last summer I was 170 which was my heaviest (I am 5’4 f) I am now 160 My goal is to by 125 somewhere in July. I have be on a 1,200 cal diet and trying to eat more protein for a little over a month now. (I usually eat a light breakfast then have a protein bar or fruit for lunch…
When the day ends
Usually, I don't count my end of day cal untill I go to bed around 2am cuz sometimes I'll eat closer to then. I would count this as technically the day before. The app starts over at 12, so should I continue how I am or end my day at 12 and just count any drinks or anything to the current day. Same for workouts. I usually…
Help
How do I stay committed to this??? I always start but never stay consistent for too long
54 from the heartland- get me out of the obese category!
I’m Pre diabetic weigh 218 and want to make lasting change through higher veggie and protein, calorie deficit eating and walking to start. I do love chocolate! I have a degree in wellness management. Looking for like minded folks! Also struggle with post COVID fatigue.Happy Valentine’s Day!
All my info is gone.
I accidentally signed in using Apple and Google separate times. At first, it would have all my info regardless of what method I used. Now it’s split. Is there any way to fix this? [edited by MFP Moderators]
Search food log
I would love to be able to have a search function for specific foods within my total log. Sometimes I’ll randomly make a really good meal, but don’t know what day. Or I went out to eat and can’t remember how I logged it. If I could search a specific food i.e. I know I used jalapeños, I could search jalapeños in my log and…
Recent foods list not sorted by recent
My recent foods list no longer has the most recently logged foods at the top of the list. I do have it set to be filtered by meal so it's not that. I have to search for every entry now, which makes me not want to log anything at all. I'm on Android. I've checked all my settings and can't find anything that would cause this.
New friends!
Hello everyone! I am new here and would like to meet people to message and encourage each other. Comment or react to this post to add you :) hope you guys have a great day and you got this!
Here we go again
This will be my second time on the app. I had great success the first time. I lost 30 lbs. I did something to my neck during that time and couldn’t exercise and then I lost interest in eating right and gained it all back plus some. I need to lose about 50 lbs. Always looking for people to encourage along the way and for…
Integrate with blood glucose monitoring apps
It'd be great if MyFitnessPal integrated with continuous blood glucose monitoring apps. I've recently tried a few and they all have inferior food entry than MyFitnessPal; both in usability and diet analysis (other than blood glucose…of course). So when I'm using a CGM app, I end up having to log all my food…twice. Be great…
I'd like to find a group for support
HI, My name is Jay. I live in Ohio and just recently left WW. I'm liking the MFP app so far but I miss the support that a group gives you. How can I find a smaller group of people to share with on here? I tried searching groups but didn't really find anything. Any help woul be greatly appreciated!
Cheat meals
When first getting started, how many cheat meals should I allow myself to have per week or month? My goal is 50 pounds. I don't think I should cheat on my diet too early at all. My boyfriend says "depriving" myself will cause me to be tempted into messing up.
Everything should be able to be measured by weight.
I have a scale in my kitchen, and I use it to get a precise indication of my caloric intake. However, too many measure with "volume" like cups. Not everything can be measured accurately that way imho. Too much empty space with larger items measuring that way. Every cup will be different.
Back again
I was told i have high cholesterol and was told to go on a low fat diet. So I'm here to try and do just that. Would love to have friends to go along this journey with!
Food Diary Time
When adding a time stamp to a food entry, optionally don't show the values from this in the diary (calories, macros etc) until after that time has passed I track my calorie burn throughout the day and enter a lot of my intake at the beginning of the day. This would allow me to *kitten* my intake against current expenditure…
Helpful app
I’m new to this app. It is beyond helpful tracking my calories and macros!!! I’m 42 do calisthenics I watch my calories and protein intake while making healthy food choices. Maybe a gym membership one day to increase muscle growth.
Food Logging/Getting rid of
Hi, everyone. Being on maintaining from enough time to let me hope I've figured out how many calories I can eat/have to burn to stay here, I moved my focus towards nutrients crucial to my health. So I'm trying to get rid of *all* the foods I used to log while losing (I chose the ones with the right amount of calories, but…
Wrong info
Just ate a magnum as a treat and it says it has 22g of protein 😂😂😂
Is there an automatically complete food diary feature?
I'm sure this question has been asked but I'm not seeing it on search! I sometimes miss clicking "Complete Diary", which is silly because I keep up to date with it all of the time. Is there a way to automate this, so that maybe 11:59PM it automatically does it? :)
Fueling Your Future in 2024 and Beyond
I'm back! It's been years since I've actively posted. Sadly, I regained at least 10 pounds since the holiday season started last October, 2023; however, I'm determined to get back -- and stay -- on track to fuel my journey to living a fabulous future. Yesterday, I discovered a set of pens with affirmations on them. I used…
I am going to a chili cook off, how do I figure out calories for that?
There will be tasting cups for each, probably the size of the little water cups is what I assume.
Pre-workout meals from restaurants/drive throughs?
On the road and need some good options. :)
