    I really like the Food Database ..... You can look almost anything out there and its in there unless its something new. I am new last month and really learning about choices I make. Sometimes you think something is healthy and its really now.

    Hi everyone I'm also a newbie. Am LOVING being able to see just how good/bad my foods are! have been shocked a few times, its really great to make you think about what your putting into your body.

    Im overeight by several stone...although everyone says I dont look it, I still need to get it shifted. Lost a stone in a year, but now I appear to have hit the dreaded wall! i do high impact exercise DVD's at least 5 times a week for about an hour, and have been watching what I eat but to no avail. Am hoping to pick up a few new tips :) I dont eat take-out, or ready meals, or sweets, or crisps or biscuits so I'm struggling to know what to do next! I also rarely drink once I found out just how many calories are in acohol (yikes!)

    hoping to share hints and tips and poss even recipes as I love cooking :):smile:
