I agree, I'm not entirely sure sometimes if I'm entering correctly. I think there's sufficient available for something that's free though so I just make guesstimates at the equivalent. :)

The only thing I can suggest is that you track your food down to the last mouthful and then you'll see it in black and white and realise that what you're eating isn't worth it. I know! I find if I've not eaten much but made bad choices (like I did myself yesterday) the calories mount up and you can see that what you've had really needs changing if you want to lose those pounds and inches.

Definitely log as you begin to learn more about what makes good calories and how quickly the bad stuff can add up if you don't do things in moderation.

Whilst I'm not active with journals I have discovered this site in the last few weeks and enjoy the tracking. I'd like some friends to keep me motivated so please feel free to have me as friends.

For those that mention recipes and putting meals together I'm afraid I'm not imaginative and tend to use a range of recipe books. For breakfast and lunch I don't have that issue as this time round I've reached for Herbalife and seeing more success than I did with Weight Watchers and Slimming World where I was hungry and negotiating points so that I could still drink (which defeats the purpose!). :oops: I've finally kicked the alcohol during the week which was a big one for me. :d I've opted for the pound a week approach this time rather than looking for big losses early on and this has been more successful with 12 pounds in 8 weeks as I ended up losing more in a few of the weeks. My biggest success was with Atkins where I felt great and lost weight quite quickly (3 stones in 3 months) - mind you I had a starting point of 16 stone so had a lot to lose! But then I fell pregnant and gained all of it and more and then Atkins wouldn't work the second time round. Good luck to us all!!

If you get weighed every morning though how does that give you an accurate reflection over the week?

I love my home one. I am tired after using it and feel exactly like I've done a big workout at the gym.
