My Fitness Pal Help



Recommended Posts

Anyone using My Fitness Pal app to track know how to do Net Carbs? It keeps telling me everytime I eat a Quest bar that I've gone over my carb goal as I have it set at 30g carbs per day, but I'm wanting to track net carbs instead of total. Anyone know?

I just did a google search for your topic and found this - http://eatfatlosefatblog.com/how-to-configure-myfitnesspal-for-a-low-carb-or-ketogenic-diet/ - it looks pretty good.

Good luck and let us know if it works :)

What % should be Protein, carbs and fats? Do you know? I'm confuse about that

Thank you! Unfortunately some of the settings in there require you to upgrade to premium @@zonetracy

@@foodfighter78 I do 65% Protein, 20% fat, and 15% carbs but my NUT helped me set them up for what works for me. Basically as long as I get my Protein over 60G a day and carbs under 30G then she is happy

Lots of foods in the myfitnesspal database have a "net carbs" version that you can enter. If you search in the foods database for something like "quest double chocolate chunk net carbs" you'll usually find that someone has entered in a net carbs version and you can use that for your entry.

      Question for anyone, how did you get your mind right before surgery? Like as far as eating better foods and just doing better in general? I'm having a really hard time with this. Any help is appreciated 🙏❤️

      I've hit a stall 9 months out. I'm not worried, though. My fitness levels continue to improve and I have nearly accomplished my pre-surgery goal of learning to scuba dive! One dive left to complete to get my PADI card 🐠
      I was able to go for a 10K/6mile hike in the mountains two days ago just for the fun of it. In the before days, I might have attempted this, but it would have taken me 7 or 8 hours to complete and I would have been exhausted and in pain for the next two days. Taking my time with breaks for snacks and water, I was finished with my wee jaunt in only 4 hours 😎 and really got to enjoy photographing some insects, fungi, and turtles.
      Just for fun last week, I ran two 5Ks in two days, something I would have never done in the past! Next goal is a 10K before the end of this month.

      Hi everyone, I wrote back in May about having no strength. I still get totally exhausted just walking from room to room, it’s so bad I’m using a walker with wheels of all things. I had the gastric sleeve Jan. 24th. I’m doing exactly what the programs says, except protein shakes. I have different meats and protein bars daily, including vitamins daily. I do drink my fluids as well.  I go in for IV hydration 4 days a week and feel ok just til evening.  So far as of Jan 1st I’ve dropped 76 lbs. I just want to enjoy the weight lose. Any suggestions or has anyone else gone thru this??  Doctor says just increase calorie intake, still the same.

      Losing my hair in clumps and still dealing with "stomach" issues from gallbladder removal surgery. On the positive side I'm doing better about meeting protein and water goals and taking my vitamins, so yay? 🤷‍♀️
