Welcome,
I've been a member 3 weeks so far and love it. It's easy to use and download the app for your smart phone if you have one.
Its so handy and you can scan bar codes from the boxes..awesome and quick!
Great support system too!
Good luck

Hi all

hookandy

With hindsight if I was starting now I would do the following:

Measure, the tape measure is your friend when the scales are being mean
Take some photos, front, back and side

Then I would start to log what you are eating now. Go for a week. You will then have a baseline of now.

Then start to change what you are eating, you already know the bad things that you do, so try and cut/change some of them

Remember you do not have to change everything at once, this is a long journey not a sprint.

Then read the forums and start to refine what you have been doing.

Good luck.

Cheers will definitely be giving the little barcode scanner a go!
