Hi everyone :smile:

I downloaded the MFP app for my iPhone on Saturday, with the intention of simply charting my gym workouts to see how long it took me to improve my fitness - but it seemed like a bit of a cheat to enter calories burned without entering what I ate too, and have been brutally honest about entering every single crumb I ate ... The result being that I only a few days later I'm full of motivation to keep within my daily calorie goal.
My ultimate goal is a loss of about 65lb, but slowly and steadily - I want to make longterm changes and keep it off! :happy:

    I'm a few miles outside Edinburgh. Nice to see some other UK-ers :smile:

    Well done on the canderel sweetener clarehaines - I can't do it! I'm racking up the calories in cups of tea, I'm trying to make my spoonful of sugar smaller each time but it's tough...
