Thank you for this video. I thought I might have been crazy for thinking that the calorie goal MyFitnessPal gave me was unusually low and now I know.

[allisonrodriguez]

As a registered dietitian I want to say THANK YOU for knowing what you're talking about before putting out an informational video. I loved your humor, the science, and your practical tips!!

I have almost one month of tracking my calories with the macros I calculated for myself and I become obsessive with this. I usually cook my own food and I like the option of creating a recipe, adding all the ingredients and counting how many portions one ate. Having a kitchen scale makes things so much easier.

Thank you for this video. I just began a fitness and nutrition program and My Fitness Pal is literally the most annoying app I've ever used. I'm going to take the advise you gave about mindset & food and use some of the meal option settings to make my life and nutrition tracking journey easier. I appreciate you!

Weighing the deficit is brilliant lol.
Game changer for sure, thanks mate!

Yoo how is It possible that you have so few views?? Don't give up, man; if you keep the quality level this high, then numbers are gonna come👍

😂 I'm back to work tomorrow after 3 weeks of summer vacation and now I know the line I'll be stunning my work mates with: "perfection is the enemy of good enough". It will be a great year! Thank you Chase.

Best MyFitnessPal tips! Really needed this info. Thank you!!!

[SuperNagz]

I have been using mfp for two years and this is an eye opener. Fav is measuring deficits. I used to think I was smart lol

Thank you

1. set your own calorie target (dont let the app do it for you)
2. turn off step adjustment (go to steps menu)
3. use the search bar for whole foods ingredients and chain restuarants (when you add a food without a label, use the search bar) you can click the + sign to add calories if you think reported one is off
4. scan barcodes (before adding it to your diary, make sure its accurate. You can also add items in
5. calorie king for untrackable food items
80/20 guideline - perfection is the enemy of good enough
6. get a food scale & measure everything in grams
7. weigh the deficits
8. create meals ( for this that are akways in rotation in your diet)
9. tweak other settings (food history, meal names, timestamps
10. utilise down time while cooking to track

Very helpful information, I’ve been doing it wrong all along.

Good video, I've recently gone back and edited my settings in My Fitness Pal for 2021 after your "how many calories ... " video helped me realise why my weight loss had plateaued (spoiler I was eating too many calories!). I tend to plan my day out in advance so everything is logged and I can get on with the day, but then I'm quite happy to eat the same things a lot of the time so that makes that a bit easier.
Hoping to kick start a little more weight loss, have also taken the advice to not count exercise calories against your daily total, I think that's sensible!

[arikwithana]

Awesome video! First time using the app and this helps a ton!

[JoeyWilliams]

I was super frustrated at first but just keep messing around with the app… youll figure it out.

I know there is someone out there that needs to hear this

My fitness pal wanted me to eat 1500 calories and I was like I’m going to starve! So I adjusted to 1800 calories and did a 30/35/35 and I lost 26 pounds/ 12kg in 2 months in a half. I’m hoping to lose 20kg now.
