Delete food plan and other items

We need the ability to delete a food plan, or at least be able to disable it once its setup. In general the app lacks the ability to delete all items (steps, messages, water, sleep etc)<br><br>I love the device and like to play and try the different features but now that I've activated some of them I want to disable/delete them until I'm ready to use them.<br><br>

I’d love a way to remove any calorie goals and simply track my food without it tell me I’m under or over my target. I’ve used both setting my own goal and having Fitbit set a goal for me, but I’d just like to track it!

I added a foodplan and didn’t like this feature I’ve tried to remove it and it isn’t possible. I spoke to a member of the Fitbit team that tried very hard to find a way to remove the food plan and return to default and found this wasn’t possible

Add a button to delete or remove the Food Plan. I added it thinking it would help with my weight gain goal but it's actually detrimental to my mental health seeing "over budget" and "___ calories left today" on my app. When seeing these notifications I tried to edit the Food Plan to remove it, but it does not have the option.

The automatic calorie counting feature is always on once you set a food plan but there's no way to turn it off or remove it from the food screen. There's also no way to completely remove the food plan.

Give the ability to delete calorie goal intake just as it was shown when you first get the Fitbit.

Users should have the ability to delete (not just modify) a food plan.
I would like the ability to simply calculate calories in vs. calories out without over/under suggestions, which is possible without a food plan but unavailable once a plan is set up.

Please give us the option to remove a food plan from our account. I can delete the weight log and goal, but "cals left to eat" is still showing.

Add the ability to delete a food plan.

It is ridiculous that this is not a "feature" to start with. How can feature be locked away from a user, without warning, for enabling something? Terrible software design.
