I've been using My Fitness Pal in conjunction with Map My Walk since July 2015 and have so far lost 5st 7lbs.
I've now got to that awful 'stage' where I can feel myself getting back in to old habits.... So far I have managed to keep the gains to a minimum and lose the weight following week, however I'm getting frustrating with my increasing lack of willpower!
I still have just under 2 stone to get to my target weight and am determined not to give in.
Any suggestions to get me back on the straight and narrow?
Thank you

Have you considered taking a 'diet break' and just eating at maintenance for a while? I ran into the same issues when I was losing, and found that if I took some of the pressure off for a while, it was easier to get my head back in the game.
Congrats on your loss so far!1 -
Thank you, I think I will give that a try, it seems that is what I'm doing without being aware of it anyway!0
