Understanding Cals v Net Cals
Please help me understand. I am for the most part a sedentary middle aged office worker who barely manages more than a couple of thousand steps a day. I am realistic enough to know the body of my youth is probably not going to happen. Have been on and off the wagon more times than I count over the last 25 years. Ideally I…

Not sure this is the right place but what happened to........
Have been an on and off user of MFP for several years. I used to like the feature where you could see your weekly calories in and out not just in the form of the bar chart but it gave you a cumulative figure over the week to the right of the bar chart. Does anyone know what has happened to it?

Daily Summary query
Hi, I have just got a new Fitbit (Charge 2) the original one objected to being put through the washing machine for some reason. My question is I am sure that I used to be able to see a bar chart of calories consumed for the week on the summary page and it would tell me if I was in deficit for the week(not in reports). Now…

Starting again in a few days.
Why a few days I hear you ask, well my husband is home for the holidays and goes back on Thursday. I have ordered my fitbit and I am on a massive drive to lose a bunch of weight before he comes back Feb 9th. I was doing really well earlier in the summer, I was counting everything but had an emotional upset in September…

Can you please check my diary.
I have gained for the last couple of days, went from 202.4 to 202.8 and then today 203.0. I am within my calories but I have been guilty of having a small breakfast, missing lunch and then having a large dinner. I am probably answering my own question but I would be grateful if you could take a look back t it. Many thanks

How important is it not to exceed..........
The various allowances. I thought all I had to do was not exceed the calories but I keep seeing post saying they have exceeded carbs or protein etc I lost 3.5 in the first week, into my second I went up two days running, down on third and up again today. I am weighing myself everyday and logging it on an app but only…

Is it best to be under or over?
I have had the app for a long time but this is the first time that I have managed a week of consistent input. I started last Sunday at 5'8" (Age 49) and 209lb. FP has given me a calorie goal of 1530 per day. I have to admit I do not calorie count every cup of tea but I usually count a couple a day (I probably have about 4…

Strange friend requests.
I am not an unfriendly person but since I put my first post tonight I have had two complete strangers put a friend request in. Wouldn't it be more acceptable to initially make contact via these boards, it seems a little strange to me.

Hello my name is Karen
Hi all, First time on the board, signed up several months ago but didn't ever bother doing much with it. I just got back from 3 weeks in Florida and my gym buddy said she had been calorie counting whilst I was away with the aid of 'My fitness pal'. I am amazed at how good this app is - have been busy scanning foods…
