    Staying motivated is key; and I hope using this website is a great tool. I have to figure out how to download the APP on my phone (not very tech smart) so I can track even when I'm not sitting at the computer. Good Luck everyone.

    Hey I learned something; if you forget to track your food for dinner and plan to do it in the morning; it looks like you can't go back....so we have to remember to do the food tracker on the day it applies to...because each day seems to be a clean slate with regards to the food tracker. Good to know

    @MariaCMcDonald - You should be able to go back to previous days.
    On the website there is arrrows on either side of the date that let you move back or forward in your diary.

    With the android app:
    -tap the 3 lines in the top left corner
    - tap diary from the list
    - you can
    - - swipe left or right to change pages
    - - tap the arrows on either side of were it says "today" to change pages
    - - tap where it says " today " to input the day you want to go back to.

    - I stand corrected; I actually can go back to the day before and complete the food tracker; thank you @shadow2soul for your input.

    I've been on the app for a while but I have fallen and climbed back up a bunch of different times. The only difference now is that I have brand new motivation to really stay on top of it, lets all do this and feel great doing it! Good luck to all of you!

    This week's goal: to log in and keep the food tracker accurate for a solid week and to exercise at least three times this week. Who is with me?

    keep going everyone....I am definitely learning a lot by tracking my food....let's put it this way; I now understand why I have not lost any weight in the last six months despite all the exercise I've been doing (walking, gym, personal trainer etc). Even when we are making healthy choices, you don't realize how critical portion control is until you actually start looking at the calories you are consuming. Best investment: digital scale.
