My fitness pal

hello there. I have the free version of the app but it seems like I cannot search foods. I have to create them. I see there is a pay version that is $13.99 per month. Is this what everyone uses to get such an accurate account of your food in terms of calories, fat, protein and sugar?

I don't pay and I am able to search and find pretty much everything I need. If I can't find it I create it. I love the recipe builder. It's a huge help.

I have used the free one for 2 years. If I cant find it I make it too!

I have the free one too. I just add food by making a diary entry and typing in the food and hitting search. Then the list appears based on what I typed.

There are fewer foods when you are using your phone. When you use the computer you will find almost any food.

If you are logging on the phone it is easiest to add something not found by scanning the barcode.

Hmmmm. I do not see on the app where to search foods. I will ask my friend at work that uses it for a tutorial. I am very computer illiterate. I don't k ow how I ended up in such a leadership role at work. Haha.

I can find just about anything and i am using the free version for about 5 years now. both the app and the online version. the scan of the bar code in the app is great for adding new food.

i have the same name on MFP so friend me if you like. we can keep each other on track I'm at a 547 day streak for tracking.
