I.I have had the MyFitnessPal app for years. Now you will be able to see the macronutrients and calories of all foods logged in MFP on your dotFIT program! On your dotFIT program, go to “Program” and then “Apps and Devices” and connect to FitbitĤ. Within My Fitness Pal, go to their section of syncing with 3rd party apps and sync with Fitbitģ. Download the Fitbit app and make a free accountĢ. Another way to do this is use Fitbit as the bridge between My Fitness Pal and dotFIT (and you don’t need to use a fitbit or pay any money to do this):ġ.

We do have the tile titled “Net Pulse” to sync My Fitness Pal information, but it only reports total calories. Here are some workarounds to use My Fitness Pal and the bar code scanner feature from fitbit (even if you don’t use a fitbit): We normally suggest to get a minimum of 1 gram of protein per pound of lean body mass per day (Remember every gram of protein is roughly 4 calories).ģ. Just stick to your total calorie goal and ideally get protein in each meal. I then like to build at least one personalized menu (pull up any menu, under the “Menus” button on the Summary Overview) and you can click the grey “Customize” button in the top right hand corner which will allow you to delete any foods and use the blue “+” sign in the lower right hand corner to add anything you want.

I personally just add the macro’s and calories, but you can add more detail if you like.Ģ. I strongly suggest to take a little time and enter those into your Custom Options which can be found under the “Favorite Options” button on the Summary Overview. I personally find that most people eat quite a bit of the same things for breakfast, lunch and snacks.

Remember we can’t use a community database because we need there to be 100% accuracy to maintain that North Carolina Board of Dietetics and Nutrition approval.ġ. We do use Calorie King as the data base and there only can be so much loaded in there (compared to ALL the foods that are out there).
