Counts Cals but no weight loss

I’ve been using this for a few years. It’s great at counting calories but whatever it’s using to assess what I need to do to lose weight does not work. I’ve tried everything. I’ve tried being honest, putting in my actual age, weight and height, telling it to lose weight and following it strictly and not losing weight. I think because of my age it’s not correctly accounting for menopause and that I need to be more restrictive so I tell her that I’m shorter or that I’m lighter or that I’m older so that it will reduce my calories and I still don’t lose weight. I am strict as possible, and I still don’t lose weight. Sometimes I allow it to account for the exercise I do every day and sometimes I don’t. It doesn’t matter. I still don’t lose weight. After three or four years of using this app I’m up 25 pounds rather than down any weight. I don’t eat out. I don’t eat with friends. I don’t do anything but follow this app strictly. It’s not worth it. Maybe if you’re 20, you’ll lose weight no matter what you do. But this app is not designed either for women or for older people or I’m not sure what.

My favorite calorie tracker ever

easy to use and so incredibly helpful. not full of a bunch of unnecessary stuff like myfitnesspal is. i have been using this for like a year and a half im so grateful for this app honestly

Keeping on track

The app easy to follow and it keeps me on track

perfeito

eu uso esse aplicativo todos os dias e em 6 meses consegui perder 9 quilos, gosto muito do aplicativo pq tenho muito controle sobre oq eu como e quanto de água eu consumo no dia, a única melhoria que eu gostaria é q tivesse opções mais fixas sobre os alimentos, muitos dos alimentos são os próprios usuários q criaram e eu sinto falta de ter uma tabela certinha pra seguir, as vezes por exemplo as calorias de um alimento estão certas mas os macros não. Gostaria q tivessem mais alimentos com a tabela nutricional correta.
Entendo q em receitas caseiras é interessante q nos usuários façamos ali uma nova criação, mas faz falta ter algo certinho já q o intuito é ter o controle sobre carbo, proteína e gordura. Entretanto, é um ótimo aplicativo, amo e vou continuar usando ksksk.
É muito interessante que msm gratuito ele tenha como guardar sua idade, seu peso, e até escolher o tipo de dieta a seguir, tbm gosto bastante que o aplicativo recomenda uma quantidade de água diária e vc pode alterar podendo colocar uma meta maior do q seu corpo necessita.
