Calories

[demos]

Hi, does anyone know a good way/tool or reputable online tool for working out how many calories you are consuming? How much is in what food etc.? When I look at the back of food packs, should I be looking at energy or fat content, salt etc.? Any tips appreciated!

MyFitnessPal every time. It's free and you can even scan in barcodes of purchased goods to get the calorie readings. I lost three stone using that (and 5:2).

It's best to cook from scratch whenever you can - you can control what you're eating. To count calories, fat, carbs etc in what you're cooking, there's an app called Cook & Count, then you can do any recipe you like and save it in your own digital recipe book. You can see the nutritional content in any weighed portion, or divided portions. Good luck!
