Thanks much, this is an app that I installed from the App Store, should I go to My Fitness Pal to change the password?
How can I change a password there when I did not create my account there in the first place? Thanks!

I changed my password over the weekend. I think it took a couple of days for the email notice to drop in my inbox after first hearing about it online. I went to the website directly to change and update it with 1Password. From: viphone@googlegroups.com [mailto:viphone@googlegroups.com] On Behalf Of Fazil M.
