Assuming MFP isn't doing away with the website, where is the login button?
This is going to be a strange issue, considering I'm clearly logged in as I'm posting this... just hear me out: The main website for "www.myfitnesspal.com" (redirects to "www.myfitnesspal.com/en/") has no log in/sign in button, just a sign up button. Mind you, the page I see is mostly a blue one with a lot of promotional…

Transparency In Company (and App) Direction
This is absolutely in response to the email that just arrived - at 3 PM my time - about the barcode scanner being switched to a paid feature. What the actual heck? In my time using barcode scanner apps, and so on, I've never once had to pay for that feature. It's practically a basic feature, built into all sorts of apps,…

Exercises in the workplace?
I'm looking for possible ideas for subtle exercises I can do while at work. I read about small things like constant leg bouncing (thank you, ADHD) can burn a few calories if sustained over the course of the day. Another one I thought might be good would be things with my office chair. Would pushing myself back and pulling…

Alternative to Pact (GymPact)?
So a bit of backstory: I actually joined MFP because of that app GymPact, then changed to "Pact". I was tracking fruits and vegetable consumption, along with caloric intake I think it was? In any case I had kinda taken a break from MFP after that service shut down, but then returned (and even joined the community here!)…

Change advertisements to be fixed-height even if not yet loaded
This is more of a technical suggestion on the UI side of things, but for those of us who use MFP for free, it would be nice having dedicated ad space that doesn't make the main page content jump around. Oftentimes I'll be about to click on something, and it jumps down (or up) because an advertisement - either the smaller,…

Back to the Gym! And other thoughts...
So, an update since last time I hopped on here... I had gone to a convention a few weeks back and upon returning home, started getting a massive headache. Nothing took care of it, and it'd just vary between making me want to cry, to just being a dull headache. Had first thought maybe I got COVID, but after getting tested…

Cheaper alternatives to Nutrisystem?
Hello! I am looking into meal kits that can provide decent easy-to-make (read: microwaveable) meals that I can take to and from work and have a good amount of nutrition in them. One of my family members is a member of Jenny Craig, but they got in when they had a one time-payment for a lifetime membership, so he lucks out…

Question - subtle exercises in the office?
While getting a standing desk is currently not an option (oh how I want one at my job), I do want to figure out exercises that are subtle and decently effective, considering. I hadn't been the best at motivating myself to walk in the parking lot every day on break (or nearly every day, and the onset of colder weather has…

Inconsistent available calories between app and website!
This morning, the MFP website was down. I refreshed it after about an hours, and it was back up. I signed in, and the one food I logged was not yet syncrhonized. I refreshed a couple of times after opening the app, and it finally showed up, and funny enough it also showed up reflecting the exercise adjustment. My app,…

Feature Parity: Search for food by UPC on Website/App Without scanning barcode
On many occasion, I've found myself at work or home, using the website to log my food. Nine times out of ten, it's easy, straightforward, but sometimes, especially with community-powered databases, I might find a bunch of variations on a specific food. On the app, I know I can scan a barcode without any issue whatsoever.…

Hello all!
Hi! I'm 30, and from New York! I had been using this app on and off for a while, but within the last few months, post-COVID, have been keeping track. I've been working on being more honest with myself and just.. putting down whatever I eat. Looking to lose weight and overall get healthier (and fight the depression that…
