Hey everyone!

So I've done nearly a week on this, loving it so far!!! I have slight health issues what with underactive thyroids so that doesn't help my metabolism! I also experience anxiety and some depression but this has defo been helping so far! Eating enough healthy food, small amounts of exercise every day... I'm finding it fine! How is everyone else finding it and what are they using this app for? Also what motivates you? What helps you? Add me up!! Xxxx Jodie xxxxX

    Other ppl doing stuff too definitely helps me, but also posting and lodging workouts help me (I do basically everything on my own).

    Mixing it up all the time is key for me though.... And a good mixtape!

    Good luck on your journey & have fun!

    Hi there and welcome! I lost 22kg in 6 months reducing my calories intake and introducing regular cardio exercise. Diet is 70% when the plan is loosing weight, but exercise helps a lot because will give an extra calories allowance which means you do not feel like you are starving. Moreover, burning calories with cardio exercise will help you loosing weight, make you feel energetic and will improve stamina. I use myfitnesspal to log my food daily, as well as mapmyrun to log my various exercises (not only running but gym sessions as well). However, I am a bit confused with the fitbit app which I have syncronised with the other two (myfitnesspal and mapmyrun) because I suspect there is often a duplication of activities/total of burned out calories. Any advice on this?
