Ok so firstly,Hi coz im new to this, only discovered last night via iphone app but since Tuesday ive been following a similar online program which is virtually the same only different names, however, for the food tracking it was lacking a lot of the foods I eat so it was time consuming and frustrating trying to find nutritional information for every single food I ate. Having failed countless diets....in the form of the "well known" versions, Ive decided to go down the calorie route and so glad I did because since Tuesday Ive lost 4lbs....very pleased with tht.

So anyway, moving on, I was browsing for an app last night to try a different, more accessible form of dieting with regards to tracking food and thought i would give this one a try. Was super easy to sign in and calculated my calorie intake for each day, which was the same as what i had been doing anyway. Went to food diary section and typed in a few foods which I normally eat and they were all there. So needless to say ive switch to MFP as its much easier.

Needing some friends to join me on the journey so feel free to add me, support me, chat away or just whatever really :)
