Walking my walk

[BeardiePup]

I have yo yo dieted for many years. Always losing and then putting it back on plus a few more pounds. I have been to WW and Slimming World, attempted Janes, Slender and other similar stuff even fat busting pills. Nothing works until you want it to and take it seriously. I now want to lose my excess and have joined HealthUnlocked and downloaded an app called NutraCheck which has all types of food listed and the calories and is a sort of food diary to which you can link to your Fitbit. I am not perfect so expect odd hiccups but today is not tomorrow and tomorrow is not today. I am aiming at 1 to 1.5 lbs per week. Wish me luck 🌻

I feel a lot of plans you don't have any control over especially those that include drinking liquids instead of a meal . These may encourage a kick start but I couldn't sustain them as a lifestyle which is what most want to achieve or else the weight is back on and the effort puts us off starting again . The simplest way is portion control and eat fresh plus regular exercise . I try and eat 3 decent meals a day , not eating anything after my evening meal . I don't ban anything but I only have the occasional 'treat'. After years of trying a lot of different eating plans this is the only thing that has ever worked for me .

I agree with what you say. I use the nutria check app to plan and portion meals and it is working quite well so far. 🌻
