Eat less move more

Hello all. I have decided to finally give up on slimming world after many years. I know the plan works but for me I finally discovered it does not learn me a good portion control with food and that’s what I need. I want to eat what I like but in moderation! I am hoping and I am determined that my fitness pal will teach me portion control and limits. I am giving myself time too. None of this stone in a month as I have found from before that comes back on plus some! I am in it for the long haul. I also need to get more active on days off!

You can absolutely do it! I lost 3 stone by counting calories and exercising after a lifetime of being sedentary. It took me 10 months to achieve. I’m 44 years old and have maintained my goal weight for 5 years now. I’m cheering for ya!

Yep, definitely can be done. I've just turned 50 and lost 4st in 2yrs by calorie counting with this app, and that included boozy weekends, a monthly meal out, pizza, chocolate etc.
It's a lifestyle change not a diet.
I'm on to my phase 2 now, which is 3st over the next 2 yrs.
