Recipe "sharing' isn't a live feature at MFP yet. You could grab a recipe that someone has linked here, search manually via the database for the ingredients as listed and create the recipe to your own account from scratch... But you could try a search via the food database... such as "allrecipes.com" just searching for…

A spritzer / mister with just water in it gets the popcorn just enough damp to hold seasonings... without sogging the popped corn into a drowned mess.

First poster missing the {img} tags entirely second poster missing the /img tag at the end, you currently have img at start and end. img must be in the [ ] brackets.

"planned exercise" isn't factored in via the daily calorie goal you're given when you "plan" it at my home > settings > update diet/ fitness profile try it, plan 0 minutes of exercise, save and view your daily calorie goal Now plan something crazy like 3600 minutes of exercise, save and view your identical calorie goal.…

I have the magic bullet and it did get regular use. But I picked up a "real" blender where the blades spin off the pitcher and the base is just the size to go on mason jars (regular width) so I'm not limited to the 4 "mugs" that the magic bullet comes with, if I need more personal serving containers I open a case of mason…

There's a lot you can do to get started with strength training that doesn't require any equipment other than what you're equipped with every day... your body A wall.... well perhaps you're surrounded by them at home... start with wall-pushups moving up the complexity all the way to one-handed or wherever you feel you're…

They (Pizza Hut at least) do still offer this. It's called "Personal Pan Pizza" it's 6" and featured on their lunch menu. Haven't had Pizza Hut in almost 4 years, I do get a hankering for stuffed crust once in a while but just seeing their hot-dog monstrosity ads may have cured me of that

Lots of things have "weird" serving sizes on them, a can of condensed soup at 274 mL while a "serving" is 125 mL... ok why not just make the can 250 mL so we can "tell at a glance" that it's 2 servings in the can instead of 2.19 servings. Bag of chips where "10 chips" is a serving at least the "grab" bags are now being…

This, this and this. If you can't hack the thought of your "coffee' without adding something else to it you're not trying "real" coffee. Try a different brand, try a different roast, try getting whole beans and grinding them yourself just when you're about to make the coffee as opposed to the big tub of pre-ground.. Lots…

Only MFP entries have different 'types" of serving sizes in one entry. A properly created user entry could have say 100 grams, 1 gram and perhaps the container at 350 grams but note that all 3 are "grams" user contributions can only have one measurement type. MFP official entries (not marked with *, which is also how YOUR…

This MFP entry (a search result NOT marked with *) has ounces as a serving size option Milk - Nonfat, with added vitamin A (fat free or skim)

We have access to a pool via my gf's workplace. Sometimes it can be crowded sometimes you have the place to yourself. If I didn't have that access I wouldn't be likely to go most places that offer a pool are $10 per drop in which I just... don't like. Seeing the consistent numbers gets annoying but I'm sure glad that it's…

How 'bout we turn it around and ask where you're travelling FROM? Just to get an idea what you're used to for scale. Ontario is big... All but a small part of Ontario's 2,700 km (1,677 mi) border with the United States ..... that's just the southern part of the province bordering our neighbours to the south total area of…

I've really stepped up the activity level lately, and have been organizing the house. It's made a huge difference in motivation to keep going. No time for the gym but between body-weight exercises and walking the dog I don't feel I need much more, swimming would be nice to pick up again but I have to find time to squeeze…

The recipe calculator can't "do" that If you take 1 cup of water and 1 cup of flour you don't wind up with 2 cups of the combined paste you just made. You may end up with 1 and a bit cups of paste or a bit under 1 cup of the paste. But you'd have to weigh the loaf and divide it by the number of portions you said it made to…

It does seem a strange one, your calories should perhaps have gone down for the change in height and at 7 lbs down you were 3 lbs away from being prompted to update your profile which should have also led to a decrease in calories. MFP prompts you at 10 lb intervals since the last change you make in that my home > settings…

A site I like to use is http://www.supercook.com/ it has a "my kitchen" frame on the left where you add items (ingredients) you have on hand one at a time and it suggest recipes using those ingredients. Great way to find various tasty ways to try those pinto or kidney beans that you bought 25lbs of because it was $1/lb…

Swimming is great if you have a reasonably priced one nearby, $10 per drop-in gets to be a bit much if you get into it but with the water doing the supporting it's great. Body-weight exercises may be a great place to start if the pool isn't an option. instead of the dreaded push-up start with something like a "wall pushup"…

Take your existing brownie recipe 1 cup of oil called for (butter, margarine, olive oil, vegetable oil,etc roughly 2000 calories) replace / substitute ALL of that on a 1:1 basis with Apple sauce or canned pumpkin Apple sauce 200 calories, only 10% of what the oil gives Pumpkin 1 cup = 100 calories... 5% of what the oil…

It's likely a rounding issue. If you've had 10 items say that have 1.4 grams of carbs they display as 1... it's "supposed" to use the "whole number" so perhaps 1.4 over 10 items would be an extra 4 grams of carbs. Still not the whole 9 grams difference you're seeing but say you had 20 items... that's an extra 8 grams vs…

Since it's a stationary bike it doesn't have to account for weight as you're only pumping your legs, maybe the arms if you're not hanging on for dear life. But the 2 numbers agreeing 'within 40 calories" that's 10 grams of carbs / protein in the difference. Well within a reasonable margin of error.

It's not really a "program" MFP is a log... just start logging your foods... be honest on portions etc. I can't call MFP a program anyway it's so customizable, some are here doing IF (Intermittent Fasting) diets, some are following South Beach macro breakdowns some are using it for TDEE (total daily energy expenditure)…

http://www.myfitnesspal.com/topics/show/796870-copying-meals-from-friends-now-available-on-the-site Recipes aren't shared, "my meals" aren't directly shared if you save them... the only thing you can "create to MFP" and have them be able to "find" via a search is a food item that you create to the database and share it…
