    Best thing to do, Caroline, is to track everything you put in your mouth for 2 weeks. After that, you can look back and have an honest chat with yourself or someone else about your goals and where the problems areas are. I have issues with coca-cola. And snacks, and eating out...the list goes on. I also found that I have more energy on days that I have a high protein intake and tracked my trips to the gym or work outs. I can tell that I am much better when I am working than on the days I am off. Structure works better for me.
    Just remember, post everything you eat. Even the small things. Once you see it on paper, your brain stops making excuses.
    Good luck on your journey!

    i've been using mfp for over 40 days and have lost 10 lbs. it does work! the first few days are pretty intense to have to log calories. but it gets easier quickly- i eat a lot of the same things and they keep a history of the foods you've logged in the past. be sure to log your exercise too. it increases your calorie counts!

    by the way- i'm from the US so i don't know how much 'two stones' is??
