How do I increase my daily calorie goal with exercise?
I used to have my diary set so the more exercise I did, the more calories I was allowed - I think it's called an exercise calorie adjustment. I want to do that again, but after trying all the logical settings, I'm not able to find the setting to achieve that. Any clues?

Meeting Calorie Goals: For Weight Gain
Over the past year or so I have been trying to gain weight and muscle. Progress was slow at first, but I’ve seen some good gains over the past 2 months now that I have began going to a gym (rather than just at home training). My weight goal is far from complete, but I’m happy that I have finally achieved some improvement,…

So many questions...
I've been told (twice) that I don't eat enough by two different nutritionists. I normally eat around 900 calories a day. But if CICO were real, I should be skin and bones, shouldn't I? I am 265 lb. - 5'6" - 60 yo f and my weight creeps up a 2.5 lbs a year. I've tried keto, atkins, vegan, carnivore, IF and MFP and the only…

Fitness challenges
Hey everyone 👋, I’ve been thinking a lot about how fitness challenges can really push us to stay consistent, whether it’s a 30-day workout streak, hitting 10k steps daily, or cutting out sugar for a month. I’m curious: What kind of fitness challenge has actually worked for you? How do you stay motivated when your energy or…

Does 1710 seem correct?
Hi. I’m a 5’5 female at 191lbs. I’m down as sedentary and 1lb per week weight loss. Those calories of 1710 seem very high? I gained a few lbs over the past month or so and I was 185lbs with calories of around 1430. Is there an issue with mfp?

Mum, lifter, and back on track — anyone on a similar journey?
Hi everyone! My first MFP journey started about 10 years ago, when I wanted to lose weight and get back into working out. It was a long process, but I eventually reached my goals — and honestly, by the end it wasn’t even about the goals anymore. I was genuinely enjoying the journey, watching myself grow stronger and more…

How does the guide to set your goals work?
If it matters this is on the website. I just changed my goal weight from 65 kg to 68 kg using the guided setup page and it changed my daily calorie goal from 2600 to 2570 which makes no sense when I didn't change any of the other fields in the guide.

Bariatric Friendly
It would be great if the app can be more bariatric surgery friendly. Those of us who are just starting our journeys often only allow 600-1000 calories in the first year. The app only allows you to set the minimum to 1200 calories. Also, the app doesn't track bowel movements, which is important to everyone. Can you include…

"Remove macros" when logging an item.
This feature would be most useful when logging some type of entrees, and either only eating a portion of, or skipping entirely, some specific ingredients. Sample case; at a restaurant whose entrees have been entered into the food database, ordering a spaghetti and meatballs dish and only eating half of the noodles. Several…
