Bab's Double Chocolate Pumpkin Muffins
A great combination of chocolate and pumpkin with the earthiness of fall spices. Even if you are not a "baker" you can make these as the base is a simple boxed cake mix. I am usually a scratch baker but sometimes you just need a little shortcut. Considering a bakery bought Chocolate Chip Muffin is about 650 calories has…

Question about the Exercise Diary
I don't like that as soon as you enter something in the exercise diary it updates on your newsfeed. I like to do several things throughout the day and would like to record them when I remember the stats for it. Would prefer being able to post it at the end of the day like you do on the food diary. I realize that is a…

Join my Campaign to get Panera Bread to Reduce Sodium
I love Panera Bread salads, soups, breads. Many of you probably do too. Have you read the nutritional content of their menu items lately. Or better yet, are you tracking your sodium intake on your food journal. If you ARE and you have eaten at Panera you will understand what I am saying. So 2500 mg is the maximum sodium…

Why do YOU block your food and exercise from view?
I am new here but have discovered that alot of people do this. Why? The way I look at it is that we are all here for the same reason. Sometimes it really helps to look at another persons food journal that is having really good success. What do they eat? When do they eat it? How do they spread out their food throughout the…

Little Annoyed at Inaccurate Nutritional Info in the Databas
I am fairly new here but have been on a weight loss journey for a year on another site. I like it here and I am trying to get used to this site. So as I understand it, any food in the database with an * is one that has been added by a member. If I am incorrect, please someone enlighten me. I find it really annoying that…

HELP>>>>>How do you see other people's recipes?
So when I create one of my own recipes it asks if I want to share it with the MyFitnessPal's recipe book. I have not been sharing my own recipes....don't know why not. I guess because the other site I used to be on as soon as you marked it for publication you couldn't edit the recipe thereafter. How does it work here?…

Does anyone use a Body Media Fit?
Hi, I am new here and was wondering how you record your BMF data. I am logging it under cardio using 1440 minutes (24 hrs) and my total calories burned under calories. I set my goals of working out 7 days a week for 1440 minutes/day. I find it odd that it shows my burned calories as calories I should be eating. That makes…
