in Introduce Yourself
What with lockdown, illness, a shift to home working and a running injury my weight has crept up and up over the past couple of years. I could do with losing 5kg to get back to "race weight"

I eat pretty healthily for the most part, I'm vegan and make my own meals, only rarely do I eat processed foods. I also don't drink alcohol. My downfall is a bit of a sweet tooth, particularly chocolate! Will be interesting to keep track of what I consume day by day.

I've managed to keep cycling and recently started to increase my mileage again. Also injury is doing better so I've just started running again too, slow and steady as I ease back into it.

Happy to connect with people to help keep each other motivated.

Any advice from people on how best to add meals that have been made from scratch?

    There is a recipe builder option. Just enter your ingredients and voila 👍🏽

    I create meals by logging all the ingredient weights and then create the meal by clicking on the ‘…’ to the right (at least on iPhones). The meals are easily modified. Be sure to save the meal. I add the total weight of the dish in the instructions. If I eat 1/4 of the dish, then I change the serving from ‘1’ to ‘0.25’.

    That has helped a lot, I generally have any leftovers for lunch the following day, so I can adjust the serving size to a percentage to allow for that, and again for lunch. Thanks.
