My Fitness Pal - did you know?

Everyone probably already knows this, BUT did you know MFP has a barcode scanner that easily adds your food into your diary? I was going to ask how you all log your Protein powders and then Voila! I see the scanner button thingy!

It's the little things...

    That's one of my favorite features of MFP. You can also use it to calculate calories in a recipe-just scan each ingredient and viola! Accurate values at your fingertips!!!

    It's great. Haven't had a food that it couldn't find. Also saves what you scanned. Great!!

    Do you have the app on your phone? When you click to add a food look to the top right and you should see a symbol for it. Horrible description, sorry.
