This research suggests that My Fitness Pal is widely used in an eating disorder population and is perceived as contributing to eating disorder symptoms. Furthermore, we found that these perceptions were correlated with eating disorder symptoms. We found that a substantial percentage (~75%) of participants used My Fitness Pal and that 73% of these users perceived the app as contributing to their eating disorder. We also assessed perceptions that My Fitness Pal contributed to eating disorder symptoms and if these perceptions were associated with eating disorder symptoms. In the current study ( N = 105 individuals diagnosed with an eating disorder), we assessed usage of My Fitness Pal to track calories. Recent research has shown that in undergraduates, calorie tracking is associated with eating disorder pathology. Mobile applications that count calories, such as My Fitness Pal, are frequently employed on a daily basis. You can connect your two accounts here (be sure to sign up for MyFitnessPal account if you don’t have one yet).Mobile phone and tablet usage has become a part of modern life. Plus, weight information syncs across both apps, so any Runkeeper-connected scale you use will shoot that information over to MyFitnessPal.And the calories you burn off while tracking activities with Runkeeper will automatically be credited and reflected in your net calorie count on MyFitnessPal-no extra math or input needed on your end!.(Don’t worry, you can make them so only you can see them here.) You’ll see the calories you’ve counted in MyFitnessPal displayed in your feed on.When you connect Runkeeper and MyFitnessPal, you’ll be able to seamlessly track two very major aspects of your overall health-exercise and nutrition-without unnecessary and clunky extra steps: You can easily find calorie data for the foods you’re consuming every day–say next week’s big slice of pumpkin pie–to make sure you’re keeping things under control! That’s why we love MyFitnessPal as a partner for Runkeeper! In case you haven’t heard, MyFitnessPal provides real-time nutrition and fitness tracking, insights and community support.
Being able to track what you eat and the calories you’re burning with exercise can empower you to make much better decisions (especially during this temptation-ridden holiday season).
