Hi
I downloaded the myfitnesspal app back in January and followed it for about 2 weeks then stopped. I found it was really good to focus on how many calories you eat without realising. It certainly stopped me having a custard cream with my cup of tea mid morning!
That is it now. Easter is over and I need to focus on losing weight. I daren't even get on the scales but suspect I have now tipped 13stone. Ideally I would like to be 11 stone.
I could really do with some friendly motivation to keep me going!

Just came out of denial and weighed myself. I was 12st 4lb. I want to be at least 11st. So I am going to set 20lb to lose as my first target.0
