Hi all! I move about a lot with my job and the lack of understanding the local food choices has really messed with my weight and health. In 2012 I moved to Germany and gained about 30 lbs. Then I moved to Austria and finally to France. Now I am up a total of about 60 lbs. I am highly motivated and have the time with my new assignment here to focus on weight loss. The major obstacle I have is finding good food choices and understanding food labels but I am going to get it done!! It is good to find an all-in-one package like myfitnesspal to help. I have had such great luck looking up products in their database! Yay!

    Hello! Another English speaker starting out with myfitnesspal in France! Seem to be able to scan most French brands so far, so been fairly easy to use. Putting on weight in Germany seems quite understandable, I live on the border and on the German side the food (and beer) is very very dangerous.

    Still trying to work out what to do if I need to go to a restaurant, find it hard to estimate calories etc in something I haven't cooked myself!
