New features and a host of bug fixes
LIVESTRONG.COM launched to the world just yesterday, but we haven’t started relaxing just yet. The team here has been hard at work behind-the-scenes on a host of feature improvements and bug fixes. Here are some recent upgrades that went live today:
- The water tracker on The Daily Plate’s MyPlate section no longer adds dozens (or hundreds!) of glasses on its own. Instead, it only adds glasses of water when you tell it to!
- When you add a food to MyPlate, we now automagically highlight the “servings” field, so that you can immediately update how many servings of that food you ate. As an added bonus, if the food you tracked would be too far down on the page to see right away, we’ll actually bounce you down the page so that you can see it without needing to scroll.
- Deleting fitness items from MyPlate now works as expected.
- If you originally registered at The Daily Plate standalone site, your profile data should now by more accurately synced. (Some of you were missing friends from TDP.)
- Your TDP Food Diary now has a new privacy setting: You can limit its readership to just your friends here on LIVESTRONG.COM.
- You are no longer required to include your last name on your profile. Your privacy settings will let you dictate whether your name is shown on your profile at all.
- The “Ideal Weight Calculator,” which was actually the “Laughably Inaccurate And Woefully Erroneous Calculator,” has been pulled from the site until it can be repaired. We apologize to those of you who used that calculator and saw its clearly incorrect results.
There’s a lot more in store! Stay tuned for more great features and fixes from the LIVESTRONG.COM team! We value your input; please let us know what you think!

Well, thank you so much for having launched this Website. It is great to have a place where cyclists, runners and health nuts in general can come together and share ideas, participate, etc. I like to be surrounded by like minded people, so I can feel more inspired to continue my journey of fitness, cycling and health.
Thanks again.
