After hearing from a few of you guys and gals on the forum mentioning the MyFitnessPal app. I thought I would give it a try.

Took a while to download with the prehistoric net speed we have here but once it did, wow, what a timesaver. Won't be going back to the old method now.

Coming up for the end of week 4 in a couple of days, we'll see how we get on.

Just out of interest, what was your old way of counting the calories?

I split the back page of my weekly tracker into 7 and wrote everything (really small!) on it, then totted up referring to previous sheets for the cal count, or using the NHS calorie finder for new stuff. Bit of a pain.

I don't use, track stuff from memory or google it, it works so I'm happy! I even eat half portions of brownies when out, amazing really!
