My Fitness Pal?

17 Replies

Hi everyone, planning on starting the NHS 12 week plan on Monday and was wondering if anyone on here uses My Fitness Pal to track their calories and eating habits?

Many thanks :)

I use myfitnesspal after being recommended it by someone on this forum. It's worth a try to see how you get on with it as it is free, but I find it really good, though it nags a bit if you have a day when you eat less than 1200 calories!

Hi, I've lost three stone by using the NHS 12 week fitness plan although it took me 5 months as I lost the weight slowly as recommended. I kept track of my healthy eating on paper format and not by using any type of App application because it suited me best. Hope it goes well for you and good luck.

Wow Steve that's amazing congrats on losing that much, it's nice to hear from someone who's had success with the plan! Keep up the hard work :)

Thanks, it was hard going at times but it worked for me in the end. Time for a quick holiday and then back to it!

I love MyFitnessPal! Have a look at the little videos in the Help section of the app.

And remember not to eat your exercise calories if you want to lose weight!

Hi, I use Myfitnesspal too. Great for seeing what's in what foods etc, not so great when you see all the sugar

Hi yeah I agree it's mad some things you think are good for you then you see it laid out like that haha but yeah it's a good way to keep an eye on things!
